ENSING  that  for  the  most  part  class  histories  are  either  not 
read  at  all  or  are  merely  superficially  glanced  over  by  each 
individual  to  satisfy  himself  that  his  name  is  inscribed  in  all 
the  rolls  of  honor  it  properly  should  be  listed  in,  be  it  known 
that  the  aim  of  the  present  writer  has  not  been  for  accuracy 
in  cataloguing  all  the  celebrities  of  the  Class  of  1914  who 
heeled  the  News  or  played  on  the  Freshman  Gym  team,  but 
rather  to  give  a  brief  summary  of  the  more  striking  incidents 
of  our  stay  on  York  Street  that  might  prove  palatable  reading 
in  the  years  hereafter.  Tradition  and  convention  hold  such 
sway  over  the  majority  of  Yale's  entering  classes  that  it  is 
but  seldom  that  the  recorder  of  the  events  of  Freshman  year 
has  the  opportunity  to  immortalize  in  literature  anything  of 
an  original  character.  The  Class  of  1914  seems  to  be  the 
exception  that  proves  this  rule,  and,  ergo,  it  would  seem  a 
shame  to  sacrifice  this  space  to  an  uninteresting  if  more  vanity- 
satisfying  list  of  members  who  entered  the  arena  of  extra- 
curriculum  activity  at  the  expense  of  omitting  a  description, 
however  inadequate,  of  the  thrilling  exploits  connected  with 
Hartenstein,  Mr.  G.,  and  the  chief  of  the  New  Haven  police 
force.

HISTORY  or  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Nearly  forty-eight  months  ago  on  that  famous  Wednesday, 
September  28,  1910,  Yale's  immortality  began  when,  three 
hundred  and  sixty-five  in  the  aggregate,  we  invaded  New 
Haven,  the  destined  home  of  most  of  us  for  the  next  four 
years.  At  last  we  were  Yale  men,  and  the  thought  was  a  solace 
to  us  all,  particularly  cherished,  however,  at  that  time  by 
those  who,  even  though  on  the  fifty  dollar  side,  were  unfortunate 
enough  not  to  be  in  242,  and  by  those  doomed  to  the  chilly 
warmth  of  Piersdh  Hall.  As  all  embryonic  Yalensians,  we 
were  enormously  thrilled  and  excited  on  this  night  before  Col- 
lege opened.  The  general  air  of  unrest  that  pervaded  the  town 
at  large,  and  the  horrid  horde  of  hoodlums  that  had  already 
gathered  in  the  neighborhood  of  the  College  evidenced  that 
events  of  no  mean  note  were  in  the  offing,  and,  at  the  sound  of 
the  band  in  front  of  Osborn  Hall,  we  felt  our  time  had  come. 
Putting  on  a  bold  front,  however,  we  massed  ourselves  under 
the  glare  of  the  torches,  ready  to  do  or  die  anoj  not  even 
inquiring  as  to  the  reason  why,  which  last  is  a  perverted 
quotation.  In  our  conflicts  with  the  Sophomores  that  evening 
we  gave  an  exhibition  that  augured  well  for  the  future  of 
Yale,  for  the  next  few  years  at  least.  Though  in  the  wrestling 
matches  we  went  down  to  a  glorious  defeat  in  two  of  the  con- 
tests, Avery's  notable  victory  in  the  middleweight  that  gave 
promise  of  his  future  prowess  that  was  destined  to  land  him  in 
the  captaincy  of  the  grapplers  for  two  successive  seasons,  more 
than  made  up  for  our  disappointment  at  Sheppard's  and 
Loman's  downfall  against  their  decidedly  overweight  oppo- 
nents. By  this  time  thoroughly  incensed  at  the  Class  of  1913 
and  already  developing  a  sense  of  pride  in  our  own  organiza- 
tion, we  adjourned  to  York  Street  for  the  Rush  proper.  At 
least  some  of  us  rushed,  while  the  more  cautious  satiated  their 
desire  to  completely  demolish  the  entire  Sophomore  Class  by 
shouting  insulting  epithets  at  them  from  vantage  points  in  the 
security  of  Pierson  and  248.  Discretion  appeared  to  be  the 
better  part  of  valor  in  rather  too  many  of  our  Class,  as  our 
opponents  were  again  declared  triumphant  in  spite  of  the  fact 

[10] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

that  what  fighters  we  had,  quite  evidently,  to  our  eyes  at 
least,  were  more  expert  in  picking  holes.  At  our  shouts  of 
disapproval  at  the  verdict,  the  Senior  marshals  confessed  that 
their  decision  was  only  in  accord  with  a  time-honored  tradi- 
tion that  they  dared  not  transgress.  The  Class  of  1915  was 
as  yet  unconceived.  Our  charitable  instincts  now  satisfied,  as 
nearly  all  of  us  had  equipped  members  of  New  Haven's  bour- 
geoisie with  choice  cappings,  we  hastened  to  the  haven  of  our 
rooms  to  escape  the  dreaded  beer  shampoo  that  rumor  had  it 
was  the  next  thing  in  store  for  Eli's  neophytes.  After  mentally 
congratulating  ourselves  on  our  successful  passage  through  the 
tribulations  of  the  night,  we  dropped  off  to  sleep,  being  inter- 
mittently awakened,  however,  by  shouts  of  "Fresh!  Fresh! 
Put  out  that  light!"  and  from  then  on  until  morning  proving 
the  practicalness  of  that  oft-considered  but  theoretical  line, 
"While  Freshman  trembling  on  their  couches  lie." 

The  next  few  days  made  evident  the  fact  that  expectations 
are  invariably  better  than  realizations,  and  it  was  with  some- 
what of  a  jolt  that  we  awakened  to  the  knowledge  that  Yale 
was  not  the  Utopia  of  our  "Prep"  School  dreams,  where  work 
was  incidental  to  the  general  course  of  events.  Our  eyes  were 
opened  not  only  by  the  seemingly  absurd  length  of  the  assign- 
ments in  our  lesson  books,  but  also  by  the  speeches  of  those 
leaders  of  undergraduate  activities  who,  at  the  Freshman 
Reception  at  Dwight  Hall,  let  us  into  the  secre't  of  how  to 
make  good  at  Yale.  It  was  at  that  identical  function  as  well, 
that  we  were  made  participants  in  the  knowledge  that  you 
never  get  more  out  of  a  thing  than  you  put  into  it.  Our  gulli- 
bility with  reference  to  that  particular  statement  proved  dis- 
astrous to  our  purses,  as  it  was  but  shortly  afterwards  that 
the  Freshman  collectors  reaped  such  a  harvest  because  of  our 
naive  belief  that  the  more  we  put  into  Yale  in  China,  the  more 
we  would  abstract  therefrom. 

As  those  were  the  primitive  days  when  one  went  out  or  in 
for  religion,  half  the  Class  signified  their  active  interest  in 
Dwight  Hall,  and  particularly  in  the  Oak  Street  Boys'  Club,

while  the  other  portion  either  played  football  or  amused  them- 
selves with  Hardy.  His  first  offering  of  femininity  as  a  relish 
for  his  victuals  soon  got  in  disfavor  with  the  Newberrys  and 
other  connoisseurs  of  the  opposite  sex,  so  she  resigned  in  favor 
of  the  auburn-haired  Ada.  At  Mr.  G.'s  advice,  as  he  was 
still  counseling  his  charges  in  every  detail,  Ada  was  passed, 
and  the  Eli  Lunch  again  came  into  good  repute  in  Garlands 
and,  ipso  facto,  with  ol  TroAAot  of  the  Class  as  well.  The  nightly 
riots  were  to  be  reserved  for  another  time  however. 

The  Freshman  football  team  passed  through  a  thoroughly 
satisfactory  preliminary  season  but  hit  a  rock  on  November 
5,  when  the  Princeton  youngsters  won  a  hard-fought  contest  by 
a  score  of  6  to  0.  This  defeat,  sad  to  relate,  proved  but  the 
beginning  of  the  end,  as  but  a  week  later  the  second  of  the  cham- 
pionship games  was  lost  to  Harvard  to  the  tune  of  14  to  9. 
Much  comfort  may  be  derived  from  the  fact,  however,  that  it 
was  largely  due  to  the  gruelling  practice  given  the  University 
Eleven  by  the  Freshmen  that  Fred  Daly's  somewhat  ill- 
omened  aggregation  finally  pulled  out  a  victory  over  Princeton 
and  a  tie  with  Harvard.  In  spite  of  a  season  that  made  us 
resort  to  the  philosophical  reflection  of  "what  might  have 
been,  if  the  worst  had  been  the  best,"  our  eleven  certainly  had 
excuse  enough  for  being,  in  that  it  brought  to  light  players 
of  such  sterling  worth  and  future  fame  as  Ketcham,  Cooney, 
Warren,  Cornish,  Wheeler,  Harbison,  and  others,  Avery  at 
that  point  in  his  gridiron  career  having  insisted  on  hiding  his 
light  under  the  conventional  bushel  basket. 

An  event  of  paramount  importance  happened  at  this  time, 
an  incident  that  not  only  reflected  great  credit  on  the  Class 
of  1914  but  also  had  a  permanent  and  I  may  say  beneficial 
effect  on  all  succeeding  classes.  Mr.  G.'s  charges  revolted 
from  his  authority.  Such  rank  heresy  could  hardly  be  credited 
by  the  college  world,  but  it  is  a  fact  that  at  a  solemn  conclave, 
the  inmates  of  242  resolutely  resolved  to  pay  no  more  atten- 
tion to  Mr.  G.'s  edicts  and  later  on  reinforced  their  faltering 
resolutions  by  physically  demonstrating  their  superiority  over

their  former  pater.  Under  the  guidance  of  Tom  Holt,  he  was 
first  thrown  into  the  fireplace  and  pelted  with  logs  of  wood. 
Angered  by  his  remonstrances,  his  tormentors  dragged  him 
forth  and  hurled  him  bodily  out  of  his  own  habitat  and  turned 
the  lock.  Meditating  on  the  advantages  of  a  whole  skin,  Mr. 
G.  passed  over  the  affair  in  as  dignified  silence  as  possible, 
considering  the  indignity  he  had  been  subjected  to,  but  his 
hold  was  gone,  and  his  former  subjects — which  was  the  impor- 
tance of  the  event  to  the  Class  as  a  whole — came  forth  and 
revealed  themselves  to  the  street  in  all  the  glory  of  their  new 
freedom.  And  it  was  then  that  we  who  were  not  of  the  inner 
temple  had  our  first  glimpse  of  Ralph  Isham,  the  Newberrys, 
and  others  who  were  to  aid  in  making  the  winter  term  of 
Freshman  year  more  agreeable. 

The  first  News  competition  was  now  in  full  swing,  as  the 
crowd  of  ambitious  bicyclists  and  violators  of  all  Nature's 
laws  governing  eating  and  sleeping  gave  ample  evidence.  Out 
of  a  field  of  some  thirty  starters,  Douglas,  Morgan  Noyes,  and

the  writer,  who  out  of  a  due  sense  of  the  fitness  of  things, 
omits  his  name,  eventually  broke  the  tape  in  that  order  and 
were  regularly  elected  to  the  board.  It  was  during  the  latter 
part  of  this  competition  that  "Whitey"  Ogden  renewed  his  fail- 
ing strength  by  repeated  and  excessive  indulgence  in  dope, 
which  indiscretion  gave  rise  to  the  radical  reforms  that  were 
instituted  in  all  future  competitions.  Innis  and  Parker 
demonstrated  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  powers  that  were  their 
vocal  ability  and  ably  represented  our  Class  on  the  musical 
clubs  trip.  Behind  the  footlights  we  were  present  in  the  person 
of  Rufe  King,  who  at  that  time  made  the  reputation  he  has  so 
ably  lived  up  to  since  and  gave  evidence  of  the  histrionic  ability 
which  was  eventually  to  gain  him  the  presidency  of  the 
Dramatic  Association. 

Though  the  examinations  made  us  pale,  but  few  succumbed, 
as  we  found  out  on  our  return  in  January.  The  regular 
weather  greeted  us,  and,  had  it  not  been  for  the  prospect  of  the 
Prom.,  our  spirits  would  have  been  low  indeed.  As  a  matter  of 

[IT] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

fact,  the  Prom,  was  the  single  most  important  means  of  the 
communication  of  our  presence  to  the  upper  classes  we  had 
thus  far  made  use  of.  In  addition  to  the  usual  review  of  the 
guests  made  by  all  Freshman  classes  on  Prom.  Sunday,  we 
placed  our  seal  of  disapproval  on  the  tradition  prohibiting 
Freshman  from  attending  the  function  by  sending  one  from  our 
midst  to  do  that  very  thing.  Tom  Holt  it  was  who  gave  us 
this  distinction  and  his  performances  since  then  can  never 
equal  the  way  he  pushed  around  the  Armory  on  that  occasion. 
What  the  Sophomores  considered  presumption  and  freshness, 
we  termed  originality,  and  Tom  was  backed  up  by  the  Class  in 
his  efforts  to  make  history. 

Manager  Tom  of  the  Freshman  Hockey  Team  now  organized 
his  seven  and  carried  them  through  a  brilliant  season  up  to  the 
Harvard  game.  The  defeat  we  suffered  in  that  contest  cannot 
dim  the  memory  of  Bishop's  and  Evans'  frantic  efforts  to  push 
all  Harvard  College  off  the  ice.  Swihart  and  Smith  were  the 
two  mainstays  of  the  Freshman  Basket  Ball  Five  that  scored 
280  points  to  their  opponents  211,  and,  with  Maxim  on  the 
Gym  squad,  our  prowess  in  the  minor  sports  was  more  than 
exemplified. 

Turning  again  from  our  athletic  achievements,  it  was  one 
cold  and  stormy  night  that  the  Eli  Lunch's  proprietor  was 
called  to  account  for  his  ill-gotten  gains.  Ralph  Isham,  by 
casual  mention  of  one  or  two  places  on  the  map  that  he  had 
not  visited,  had  given  the  impression  that  he  was  something 
of  a  traveler,  so  to  speak,  but  had  not  before  revealed  his 
propensities  for  highway  robbery.  So  no  one  of  the  nightly 
assemblage  in  the  1914  Cafe  suspected  the  identity  of  the 
muffled  figure  that  came  in  the  restaurant  on  that  January 
evening  and,  after  accusing  Hardy  of  conducting  a  house  of 
all  sorts  of  vice,  ended  by  demanding  the  contents  of  the  cash 
drawer.  Hardy's  chalky  face,  already  artificially  whitened 
by  the  contents  of  the  sugar  bowl  several  times  emptied  on  his 
head  by  the  "Newbs"  and  "Bip,"  will  never  be  forgotten  by 
those  who  were  fortunate  enough  to  be  present.  The  wild  chase 

[18]

down  York  Street,  headed  by  the  son  of  Abraham  himself, 
ended,  of  course,  fruitlessly,  and  the  success  of  the  ruse  was 
complete  when  Ralph,  devoid  of  his  disguise,  returned  with  the 
hunters  and  talked  the  situation  over  with  Hardy.  Nor  should 
the  race  riot,  precipitated  by  Almet's  mild  request  for  his 
tennis  ball  which  had  rolled  into  the  kitchen,  be  forgotten. 
The  resultant  excitement  culminating  in  Baxter's  zealous 
search  for  his  pistol  and  the  presence  of  three  police  officers 
did  not  calm  down  for  a  week  or  more,  during  which  period 
Hardy  and  his  house  and  lot  were  boycotted. 

A  fall  of  snow  now  happening,  we  had  our  first  opportunity 
to  settle  our  differences  as  to  the  superiority  of  one  side  of  the 
street  over  the  other.  The  fusilade  of  snowballs  from  Pierson 
started  the  riot  that  is  even  now  talked  of  in  whispers  and 
which  will  go  down  in  the  annals  of  the  New  Haven  Police 
Court  as  well  as  those  of  Yale.  Garlands,  248-250,  and  the 
other  houses  combined  were  proving  more  than  a  match  for 
"Toot"  Farr's  charges  when  he  himself  appeared  and  put  a

quietus  on  the  civil  war.  All  would  have  been  well  had  not 
the  officer  on  duty  at  Elm  and  York  already  incurred  the 
enmity  of  some  of  our  Class.  He  was  now  made  the  common 
target  and,  as  a  result,  rang  for  aid  and  with  two  accomplices 
nonchalantly  took  his  stand  in  front  of  G.'s.  Foiled  for  the 
moment,  it  remained  for  "Beany"  Jennings  to  grasp  the  con- 
necting link  between  a  window  and  snow.  No  sooner  said  than 
done  and  Fritz  had  dropped  a  great  mass  of  wet  slush  on  the 
law-preserver's  helmet,  the  vexation  of  the  same  official  being 
increased  a  moment  later  when  a  second  missile  caused  a  tem- 
porary stoppage  of  his  ability  to  hear.  With  the  sagacity  for 
which  the  New  Haven  police  are  noted,  this  sleuth  immediately 
deduced  the  fact  that  Stuart  Johnson,  an  interested  onlooker 
from  the  steps  of  238,  was  the  offender.  His  dash  up  the 
steps  and  masterful  capture  of  Stuart  well  merited  him  the 
medal  for  bravery  which  he  would  doubtless  have  been  awarded 
had  not  at  this  moment  a  New  Haven  "low-life,"  who  was  near 
by,  pointed  out  Clare  Prentice  as  the  proper  culprit.  It  is  the 
one  blot  in  our  escutcheon  that  this  miscreant  escaped  the  bod- 
ily punishment  he  so  richly  deserved.  Clare  was  pinched  and  in 
the  turmoil  that  followed,  Lewis  Hoffman,  Foster  Williams, 
and  Ralph  Wolf  were  also  gathered  in;  Hoffie  for  objecting  to 
the  policeman's  clubbing  Clare,  Ralph  for  resenting  an  insult- 
ing epithet  an  officer  applied  to  him,  and  Bill  for  merely  exist- 
ing a  little  too  long  in  the  path  of  an  officious  officer.  Followed 
by  the  Class  en  masse,  the  four  martyrs  were  hauled  to  the 
police  station  in  the  patrol  wagon.  To  be  brief,  our  classmates 
were  fined  but,  in  Dean  Jones,  whose  efforts  in  their  behalf  were 
indefatigable,  we  had  found  a  new  friend,  bearing  out  again  the 
old  adage  that  it's  an  ill  wind  that  blows  nobody  any  good. 

After  the  excitement  incident  to  the  formation  of  the  crimi- 
nal club  had  somewhat  abated,  we  found  that  in  the  interim 
several  of  our  classmates  had  ventured  into  new  fields  of  activ- 
ity. Rand,  Noyes,  Tuttle,  and  Bergen  had  all  persuaded  the 
Lit.  Board  of  their  genius,  while  Avery  and  Mclntyre  had 
discovered  their  calling  in  the  classic  art  of  catch  as  catch

can.  Bergs,  Babcock,  Ford,  Johnson,  Carpenter,  Barton — and 
the  list  is  interminable — were  serving  their  apprenticeship  on 
the  Apollo  Musical  clubs. 

In  the  formation  of  the  Freshman  Glee  Club,  the  latter  part 
of  the  term,  the  customary  requirement  for  membership  of  the 
possession  of  dress  suitings  was  completely  ignored,  and  the 
entire  absence  of  any  ability  at  singing  was  substituted.  The 
Newberrys  it  was  who  originated  this  brilliantly  stupid  method 
of  picking  men  for  the  organization,  and,  at  the  direction  of 
I.  Beebe,  they  went  to  work.  "Nibs"  Noyes,  the  leader  of  this 
curious  assemblage,  and  others  who  might  properly  feel  libeled 
by  the  above  statement  of  the  manner  in  which  the  selections 
were  made,  will  perceive  the  truth  of  my  assertion  when  I 
recall  to  their  minds  that  in  the  list  of  men  who  earned  the 
$7.64  for  the  Freshman  Crew  appear  the  names  of  S.  Colt,  T. 
Holt,  D.  Hemingway,  C.  Gile,  N.  Wheeler,  A.  Jenks,  J.  Mitch- 
ell, C.  Baxter,  and  W.  Campbell.  Extensive  over-night  trips 
were  arranged  by  the  hustling  manager,  J.  Banks,  who,  by  the 
way,  on  finding  his  duties  too  arduous,  created  the  office  of 
"assistant  manager  of  the  combined  Freshman  Musical  organi- 
zations," and  enticed  Wallace  Holden  to  be  the  first  incumbent 
thereof.  The  Freshman  Smoker,  which  was  the  last  event  of 
importance  during  the  winter  term,  was  an  entire  success  under 
the  able  guidance  of  Tom  Sheppard,  who  incidentally  ate  exclu- 
sively at  the  Taft  the  remainder  of  the  year  on  the  proceeds. 
Who  said  the  Taft  was  built  our  Freshman  year?  After  sit- 
ting around  and  waiting  for  it  to  rain  for  a  few  weeks,  the  term 
ended  and  away  we  went  for  the  Easter  vacation. 

Primarily  because  of  our  success  in  athletics  do  we  still  cher- 
ish such  fond  memories  of  the  final  term  of  the  year  we  spent  on 
the  Freshman  boulevard.  The  baseball  nine,  under  the  leader- 
ship of  Cornish,  ended  the  season  with  a  creditable,  nay,  emi- 
nently satisfactory  record  of  8  wins,  3  losses,  and  1  tie,  two  of 
the  victories  being  won  from  the  Princeton  Freshmen  and  the 
tic  being  with  our  ancient  antagonists  from  Cambridge.  In 
addition  to  the  captain,  Cobb,  Gile,  Brown,  Harpham,  Blossom,

Swihart,  and  Osborn  won  their  numerals.  The  track  team  was 
even  more  successful,  being  satisfied  with  nothing  but  decisive 
victories  over  both  our  rivals,  Princeton  succumbing  by  the 
score  of  67  2-3  to  36  1-3  and  Harvard  tasting  defeat  at  their 
hands  to  the  tune  of  62  to  42.  Avery,  Baxter,  Harbison,  and 
Howard  were  among  those  who  scored  points  against  our 
opponents  and  aided  us  to  our  first  undisputed  championship, 
the  baseball  team's  failure  to  earn  us  the  privilege  of  smoking 
our  pipes  on  the  fence  denying  them  the  enjoyment  of  our 
unstinted  praise. 

The  Crew  had  departed  for  the  ferry  some  time  since,  when 
we  clashed  with  the  Sophomores  for  the  third  and  last  time  in 
the  ceremony  attendant  on  our  inheritance  of  the  historic  fence. 
Our  selection  of  Almet  as  our  champion  in  this  battle  of  wits 
proved  a  happy  choice,  as  was  unanimously  admitted  after  he 
had  delivered  in  his  admirable  and  inimitable  manner  the  ora- 
tion that  on  that  occasion  knew  no  equal.  And  so  the  fence 
that  was  already  morally  ours  by  virtue  of  our  victory  in  the 
fence  rush  in  February — the  Class  of  1915  has  since  entered 
College — became  our  property  in  reality.  Before  we  adjourned 
to  New  London,  Jones,  Blackburn,  S.  King,  and  Patterson 
found  themselves  on  the  board  of  the  "Oldest  College  Daily," 
while  "Ken"  Burrough  was  discovered  with  a  strangle-hold  on 
the  valedictoryship. 

The  single  crew  victory  of  importance  during  the  first  three 
years  of  our  course  was  witnessed  by  those  fortunate  enough 
to  be  in  the  neighborhood  of  the  Thames  in  June,  1911,  and  it 
is  this  triumph  over  Harvard  on  the  water  that  is  our  choicest 
memory  of  our  initial  year.  The  victory  of  both  the  Freshman 
boats  did  much  to  wipe  out  the  sting  of  the  Varsity's  downfall 
and  allowed  us  to  completely  forget  the  disastrous  defeats 
administered  to  the  University  Baseball  Team  by  both  Har- 
vard and  Princeton.  Rogers  and  McHenry  in  the  eight  and 
Pearse,  Pease,  and  Lippincott  in  the  four  were  the  men  from 
1914  who  had  the  exquisite  pleasure  of  watching  Harvard 
cross  the  finish  line.  Leaving  the  scene  of  our  final  triumph,

we  read  in  the  papers  that  Jennings  on  the  golf  team  and 
Gates  on  the  tennis  had  been  chosen  to  represent  Yale  in  the 
Intercollegiates  in  the  fall. 

And  thus  it  passed,  a  year  of  joys  and  sorrows,  mostly 
joys,  and  one  that  is  now  indelibly  stained  in  our  memories 
as  one  of  the  happiest  of  our  lives.

'Aptcrreta 
The  brave  deeds 


,  O  Thersites,  or  whatever  your  Musaic  name  is,  the 
deeds  of  the  heroes  of  our  Sophomore  year :  I  have  been  over 
the  whole  epic  cycle — the  News  heeling,  the  fever  and  the  fret 
of  the  fall,  the  Terpsichorean  and  Machiavellian  machinations 
of  the  winter,  the  plots,  counter-plots,  and  culminations  of  the 
spring,  the  racing,  tracing  and  retracing  of  the  early  summer. 
But  among  all  these  varied  activities,  there  stands  forth  one 
hero,  like  Diomede  of  old,  he  of  the  loud  warwhoop ;  and  there- 
fore have  I  named  this  book,  and,  I  think,  not  unwisely,  but 
too  well,  the  chronicles  of  the  brave  deeds  of  J.  Bishop. 

To  begin,  Bish  and  we-all  came  back — the  former  with  a 
wallop,  the  latter  with  mixed  joy  and  fear.  Bish,  owing  to 
an  unfortunate  untactfulness  in  cleaning  up  Toot  Farr  at 
penny-ante,  the  spring  before,  was,  for  the  time  being,  rated: 
shelved,  but  not  quelled.  Of  that,  more  anon.  Bish  is  the 
Dramatic  Unity  in  this  book,  and  also  in  the  true  Berdanese 
sense,  the  Emphasis — and  the  Punch,  in  the  Broadway  man- 
ager's lingo.  The  coherence,  said  to  be  typical  of  Yale  classes, 
comes  with  a  Rush.  But  it  is  not  yet  February  22. 

To  continue:  the  unrated,  as  distinguished  from  the  unruly, 
bebusied  themselves  with  furbishing  the  barren  abodes  of  Dur-

fee,  Farnam  and  Lawrance,  thus  starting  the  eternal  triangle 
(beg  pardon,  Scotty)  which  has  been  allotted  to  Sophomores 
ever  since.  It  is  said  to  solidify  the  class  to  the  extreme  con- 
venience of  short-winded  campaign  committeemen  when  deliv- 
ering holdoffs,  and  Sig.  Hartenstein  when  delivering  holdups. 
(It  may  be  noted  that  we  owed  the  latter  worthy  more  on 
paper  than  any  class  before  or  since.) 

We  were  extremely  careful  about  our  room  decorations,  for 
much  depended  on  them.  Gone  were  the  colossal  Yale  seals 
of  York  Street,  gone  were  the  Prep.  School  banners,  gone  the 
pillows  our  long  outgrown  high  school  crushes  had  been  weav- 
ing for  us  since  kindergarten;  but  in  their  place  arose  a  host 
of  old  Dutch  candelabra,  of  Copley  prints  and  of  fake  Gior- 
giones  (I  can  see  Hod  Newson  getting  up  and  majestically 
stalking  from  the  room).  For  we  expected  callers,  we  did; 
and  if  the  Junior  Class  was  long  on  anything  (which  I  doubt) 
that  anything  was  culture.  It  is  but  fair  to  1913,  and  inci-

dentally  to  ourselves,  to  remark  here  that  these  outward  em- 
bodiments of  the  inward  spirit  of  Lizzy  Club  heeling  have 
remained  with  us  e'en  till  now,  to  the  immense  delight  of  our 
maiden  aunts  and  the  unutterable  disgust  of  Dutch  Carter. 
J.  Bishop  roomed  on  the  ground  floor  of  Lawrance,  with 
Larry  Carpenter,  Tub  Clark,  Collar-Button  Banks,  Ned  Bart- 
lett,  B.  and  P.  Newberry,  Spawn  Valding,  Dick  Dyer,  Nate 
Wheeler,  Hod  Newson,  and  Geff  Tower.  The  names  of  J. 
Bishop,  Foster  Williams  and  Norm  Schaff  were  on  the  door,  for 
the  supposed  convenience  of  the  Bursar;  but  the  carcasses  of 
the  aforementioned  horde  were  so  frequently  deposited  there 
that  the  average  News  heeler  or  bill  collector  could  not  possibly 
tell  who  roomed  with  what.  One  day  the  Bishop  and  the  Deacon 
were  talking  shop,  i.e.,  about  rooming  on  the  ground  floor. 
Angus  Dun  had  drawn  a  bottom-story  room,  too,  but  said  he

preferred  one  up  higher,  as  the  rarefied  atmosphere  was  more 
conducive  to  study  and  meditation.  "Top  floor  be  blada- 
zened!"  exclaimed  Julian  the  Apostate.  "You  just  wait  till 
you  come  home  potted  some  stormy  night.  Then  you'll  be  d — n 
glad  you've  got  a  bed  on  the  ground  floor !"  To  which  Angus 
had  no  comeback.  I  am  told  on  good  authority  that  he  is  still 
unconvinced. 

Football  started  up.  So  did  we-all,  when  Ben  Avery  con- 
tracted the  touchdown  habit  in  the  first  game  of  the  season. 
The  sideline  devotees  early  got  accustomed  to  Foster  San-

defense,  a  peculiar  but  effective  form  of  tunneling,  which  we 
hear  he  intends  to  introduce  into  his  native  burg  of  Brooklyn 
to  obviate  the  bridge  jam.  And  speaking  of  bridge  reminds 
us  again  of  our  hero,  and  the  Nibs-Noyes,  Stew  Dodge,  Jerry 
Connolly,  Bob  Cook  entry  of  Lawrance,  where  the  3  a.m. 
sessions  of  the  national  game  rivalled  even  Bish's  own  inven- 
tion— the  diverting  pastime  of  Campus  golf. 

This  great  game  deserves  brief  but  signal  mention.  With  a 
tee-off  from  a  brick  on  the  ruins  of  Alumni  or  the  foundations 
of  Wright  (we  never  could  be  sure  which),  the  driver  home- 
ward clouted  his  eerie  way  toward  a  certain  spot  in  the  ground 
floor  of  Lawrance,  with  the  Fence,  short-sighted  and  slow- 
moving  profs,  and  old  Mary's  laundry  cart  as  bunkers,  and 
Toot  and  Jim  Donnelly  as  the  most  efficient  obstacles.  The 
first  hole  on  this  erratic  and  hazardous  course  was  a  pane 
in  Carter  Phelps'  window  in  Durfee — a  different  pane  each 
time.  As  winter  came  on,  Carter  and  Ken  Clapp  slept  in 
sheepskin  coats  and  looked  out  upon  the  Campus  through 
windows  composed  largely  of  the  New  York  Times,  like,  alas, 
too  many  of  their  fellow  collegians  in  the  underworld.  The 
second  hole  was  a  light  in  front  of  the  Avernian  entry  of  Far- 
nam,  and  the  third  and  last  was  at  the  O'Toole  clubhouse  in 
Lawrance.  The  record  for  the  course — held,  of  course,  by 
the  inventor,  was  36,  the  size  of  the  score  being  accounted  for 
by  the  necessity  of  loft  shots  for  putts  at  the  respective 
orifices. 

Well,  calling  came  at  last,  and  the  whole  class,  Carp  ex- 
cepted,  shaved  and  put  on  collars  each  evening  for  two  weeks. 
Excitement  reigned  supreme ;  the  two  hours  of  glad-handing 
and  cigarette-lading,  the  four  hours  of  comparison  and 
doping  that  followed  them,  wore  us  to  skeletons  and  left  no 
flesh  on  us  for  our  runners  to  sweat  off.  Nobody  slept,  nobody 
studied  anything  but  the  Pot  Pourri.  Ray  Palmer  used  to 
cause  great  embarrassment  to  his  roommates  by  leaving  his 
copy  open  at  one  page — the  second  De  Secretis — all  during 
calling.  Tom  Daniels  and  others  tried  to  stimulate  conversa-

tion  by  concocting  coffee  for  their  visitors,  and  averaged  three 
committees  a  night;  some  one  (who?  Oh,  you'd  never  guess!) 
trotted  out  a  decanter  and  averaged  all  five !  But  Rufe  King, 
by  playing  the  "My  Hero"  waltz  every  time  Charlie  Bonnell 
came  around,  was  the  cleverest  dopester  in  the  bunch.  Hold- 
offs  came  at  last — and  eftsoons  fifty  of  us  had  felt  our  knuckles 
crack  under  the  fevered  grasps  of  the  campaigners.  It  was  a 
wild  night,  both  before  and  after,  but  remarkable  historically 
for  one  thing  only ;  it  was  the  last  election  that  Mr.  G.  doped 
in  anything  like  his  old-time  form.  The  following  spring  gave 
him  his  death  blow.  But  that  can  keep. 

More  football.  Revenges  on  West  Point  and  Brown  were 
sweet,  but  we  met  a  severe  setback  when  Sam  White  did  his 
famous  fadeaway  slide,  and  gave  employment  to  Princeton  pic- 
ture post  card  makers  for  twenty  years  to  come.  And  that 
night  came  the  Riot — the  thanwhichest  of  all  riots  which  have 
made  New  Haven  famous  in  the  eyes  and  ears  of  tremulous  old 
ladies  as  the  land  of  the  spree  and  the  home  of  the  bum.  No 
members  of  '14  got  arrested,  so  I  will  not  go  into  details;  all 
I  remember  is  Mac  Hayden's  telling  me  excitedly  that  "Stan- 
lor  Taley;  no,  Stalor  Tanley;  no,  Tanlor  Staley!  come  darn 
near  being  run  in !"  No  proof,  however,  is  alleged,  so  we  may 
conclude  that  Taylor  Stanley's  record  is  clear. 

We  journeyed  en  masse  to  Cambridge*  but  Bish,  who  had 
cannily  bet,  at  colossal  odds,  that  Harvard  would  not  score, 
was  the  only  man  to  annex  any  lucre.  A  week  or  so  later  we 
had  the  pleasure  of  seeing  Ketch's  name  and  picture  in  Col- 
lier's as  deserving  of  the  great  All-Mythical  Eleven.  Thus 
did  1914  win  its  first  national  recognition. 

Then  came  the  well-named  "running."  How  we  plodded  up 
those  steep  Oval  stairways,  dutifully  doffed  our  dips,  and 
adorned  the  sundial  when  requested  by  our  mentors.  And 
what  horrible  misfits  there  were  between  runners  and  run! 
Stew  Dodge  cowering  under  Wendy  Baker;  Rufe  King  flying 
with  feminine  shrieks  from  the  Gargantuan  Achelis;  Ken 
Moore  kowtowing  to  the  husky  Bruce  Cortelyou ! 

[30] 


SOPHOMORE  YEAR 

It  was  the  morning  after  running  that  Barnes  Newberry 
got  off  his  famous  wheeze  about  the  lucky  Sophomores  wearing 
carnations  and  the  unlucky  ones  wearing  forget-me-nots; 
whereupon  the  Yale  Flower  Agency  sprang  into  being,  and  by 
the  unprecedented  demand  for  the  latter  buds  (we  couldn't 
say  for  forget-me-nots  without  stuttering)  throve  in  might 
and  power,  under  the  beneficent  reign  of  Abe  Spencer  and 
Fred  Timperley.  For  have  they  not  but  to  delay  an  organiza- 
tion's morning  shipment  of  flowers — its  members  go  forth  to 
chapel  unadorned — lo,  it  is  doomed!  "Consider  the  lilies  of  the 
field,  my  son,"  as  Dick  Hill  would  say. 

Just  before  exams. came  the  first  great  boost  to  the  cause  of 
"Temperance  and  Culture,"  to  borrow  a  Lorrin  Shepardism: 
i.e.,  the  foundation  of  the  Elizabethan  Club.  Immediately  all 
our  Lit.  heelers  forswore  the  "sheer  divine  concentration  of  the 
vine,"  always  heretofore  a  prerogative  of  the  Lit.,  and  took 
to  Bohea  and  biscuits  at  5  o'clock — or  "Bronx-time,"  as  Tubby 
Clark  christened  the  itching  hour.  Harold  Saylor,  with  a  sum 
total  of  30,000  Everyman  classics  in  his  room;  Almet  Jenks, 
with  the  complete  first  editions  of  Pinero,  Shaw,  Jones  (Henry 
Arthur,  if  you  please,  printer)  and  Granville  Barker;  and 
Emerson  Tuttle  with  20,099  masterpieces  of  European  and 
native  art,  including  many  of  Howard  Pyle's  fairy  tales,  auto- 
graphed, were  the  first  men  to  be  taken  in — or  rather,  the 
first  by  whom  the  club  was  taken  in  (that's  mean,  I  know,  and 
I'm  sorry  now  I  wrote  it).  It  was  not  until  ale  had  been  added 
to  the  club's  menu  that  Fran  Bergen  and  Ken  Rand  even  con- 
sidered the  possibility  of  joining. 

The  fall  term  ended,  as  fall  terms  sometimes  do.  This  one 
seems,  as  we  look  back  on  it,  archaic ;  it  dragged  with  it  exams. 
Then,  and  then  only,  did  we  realize  what  we  had  been  doing 
when  we  elected  physics,  biology  and  logic.  All  of  us  flunked 
physics ;  two  of  us — the  author  and  Don  Hemingway  had 
adjoining  seats — got  warned  in  biology;  we  all  thought  we'd 
flunk  logic,  but  didn't.  We  got  a  good  scare  all  along  the 
line,  and  we  can  say  at  this  safe  distance  that  exams  before

burst  into  light  and  was  baptized  in  confetti  and  red  fire.  Syn- 
chronous with  this  disturbance,  the  class  of  1914  burst  into 
lights  ahead  after  exams,  and  was  baptized  in  fire-water.  Here 
endeth  the  first  term. 

BOOK  II.    FYTTE  THE  2o 

We  straggled  back  to  the  Campus,  eyesore  and  eerie.  Our 
1914  glee  club  sextette  proved  themselves  worthy  of  that  name 
by  receiving  small,  square,  cream-colored  envelopes,  scented 
with  mint  and  postmarked  Louisville,  all  the  rest  of  the  winter. 
Eggnog  became  the  rage :  and  the  Record's  Prom.  Tea,  because 
of  that  fact,  became  the  outrage.  In  short,  The  Influence  of 
the  South  began  to  be  felt  at  Yale  as  never  before  since  the  days 
of  Jno.  C.  Calhoun,  late  lamented. 

Snow  came,  and  snow  went.  Movies,  as  yet  in  their  infancy 
of  development,  were  accordingly  left  open  to  the  ravenous 
patronage  of  1915.  The  greatest  movement  class  that  has 
ever  come  to  Yale;  but  the  Fourteeners  went  the  circuit.  Bije 
to  Grand  to  Poli's  three  times  a  week  and  sometimes  four, 
depending  on  weather  conditions,  over  and  under.  At  the 
same  time  they  discovered,  in  the  glow  of  their  Sophomoric 
freedom  and  in  its  propinquity  to  their  haunts  of  vaudevillainy, 
a  small  frame  building  on  Temple  Street,  which,  alas,  no  other 
subsequent  class  has  been  able  to  rediscover. 

Much  has  been  written,  said  and  sung  of  the  charm  of  Mory's 
upon  first  looking  into  it ;  in  fact,  I  believe  Keats,  in  his  delec- 
table Sonnet,  "Upon  First  Looking  into  Chapman's  Homer," 
really  had  in  mind  a  first  glimpse  into  this  Choplover's  Home: 

"Then  felt  I  like  some  matcher  of  the  coin 
When  a  new  penny  gets  into  his  pile; 

Or  like  Stout  Billy,  bringing  the  Sirloine 
With  sausage  garlanded  shout  a  mile, 

For  which  the  hungry  Sophomore  doth  yoin,* 
Silent,  but  spreading  an  expansive  smile !"

Mory's  was  our  first  love,  Mory's  of  "Temple  Bar."  The 
Real  Temple  Bar.  Real,  too,  were  the  tears  we  shed  when 
westward  the  tide  on  grill-fire  took  its  way  to  the  excellent, 
but  never-quite-the-same,  abode  on  York  Street.  Louis  Linder, 
above  all,  loved  "the  old  place"  as  his  home;  and  it  was  a  rare 
privilege  to  see  him  sitting  of  an  evening  at  the  Senior  table 
among  the  Captains  and  Kings,  himself  the  Host,  the  Oracle, 
the  Historian.  It  is  a  sad  but  proud  memory  that  our  Class 
was  the  last  to  know  and  love  him  in  the  home  that  he  knew 
and  loved. 

Prom.-time  showed  an  increase  in  the  sales  column  on  the 
books  of  Messrs.  Jenkins,  Fitzgerald  and  Chase,  and  a  de- 
crease in  the  coupon  columns  of  Mr.  Kirk's  handy  little  bleed- 
ing books.  Our  Sophomore  German,  thanks  to  the  above- 
mentioned  committee — you  know  all  these  gentlemen — was,  as 
is  the  habit  with  those  affairs,  pronounced  the  best  ever  given. 
As  proof  we  produce  the  fact  that  the  canes  given  as  favors 
are  carried  in  the  best  and  most  exclusive  circles  to  this  very 
day.  As  for  the  Prom.,  it  was  a  tiring  affair,  not  from  any 
fault  of  the  committee,  but  from  that  of  the  dance  then  in 
vogue,  i.e.,  viz.  and  to  wit,  the  Boston.  The  Boston,  like  the 
conversation  of  the  inhabitants  of  its  native  heath,  is,  in  small 
doses,  at  least  interesting;  from  9  p.m.  to  5  a.m.,  it  is  a  bore. 
No  one  wanted  to  dance  till  eleven  the  next  day,  after  all  night 
at  near-waltzing;  so  the  Prom,  survived  one  more  year  as  a 
Yale  tradition. 

Well,  despite  the  gayety,  the  little  busy  bees  of  '14  had  been 
out  staking  claims  to  various  jobs  and  offices,  and  after  the 
first  rush  of  settlers  to  the  new  regions,  Stod  King  was  found 
installed  as  Assistant  Press  Manager  of  The  Yale  Dramat,  with 
full  power  and  authority  to  hang  any  or  all  of  the  cast  at  a 
moment's  notice  for  the  sake  of  publicity.  Almet  Jenks  was 
found  after  or  before  (take  your  choice)  the  flood,  sitting  high 
and  dry  on  the  Managership  of  the  aforesaid  Dramat,  with 
stenographers,  bell-hops  and  A.  D.  T.  boys  innumerable  at  his 
beck  and  call;  more  often  beck,  for  Almet  goes  without  saying.

HISTORY  or  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Sloan  (intimate,  "Sam")  Colt,  in  his  new-found  capacity  of 
Musical  Club  Manager,  was  soon  gathering  in  the  silvery  notes 
so  necessary  to  that  organization,  and  became  a  popular  extra- 
campus  character  at  all  concerts  henceforth,  standing  in  the 
box  office  with  a  pleasant  smile  and  a  white  tie  on.  In  view 
of  the  Glee  Club's  last  trip  and  first  dry  one,  we  don't  know 
whether  to  call  him  an  Abolitionist  or  Prohibitionist,  but  take 
it  from  us,  he's  a  thorough  Democrat.  Lastly,  but  not  leastly, 
the  ever  reliable  Tom  Daniels  tightened  the  girth  and  vaulted 
into  the  saddle  of  the  Dramat  Secretaryship,  where  he  has 
sat  ever  since,  finding  the  Dramat  a  tractable  beastie  "after 
all  she  do  kick  up  a  bit  at  first,  sir." 

Meanwhile  Ken  Rand,  Fran  Bergen  and  Nibs  Noyes  had  been 
polishing  the  Lit.,  the  two  former  acquiring  considerable  polish 
in  the  course  of  the  year.  (You'll  have  to  take  my  word  for 
them.  Nibs'  drool  comes  next  to  mine,  and  you  can  see  for 
yourself.)  George  Hamilton — now  that  "The  Old  Red  Cow 
is  Dead,"  he  won't  mind  my  mentioning  it — was  contributing 
industriously  to  that  sheet,  mainly  advice  to  Freshmen — "for 
the  children  must  be  fed,"  as  he  so  sagely  said  in  the  exquisite 
lyric  ascribed  to  him.  Harold  Saylor  was  also  beginning  to 
show  interest  in  the  Crew  Situation,  Senior  Eating  Tables  at 
Commons,  and  Poached  Eggs  of  all  Colleges,  while  Mel  Price, 
in  his  assiduity  to  make  the  Record,  made  the  very  interesting 
one  of  two  frozen  ears  in  one  trip  down  to  the  printer's  on  a 
stormy  day.  The  editor,  who  had  sent  him  on  the  chilling 
errand,  gazed  for  a  moment  at  his  red  elephantine  protuber- 
ances, then  taking  out  a  T-square,  measured  the  swollen  audi- 
tory organs  from  tip  to  tap.  He  then  marked  off  in  the  credit 
book  the  space  thus  determined,  and  Price,  with  the  largest 
space  credit  ever,  made  the  board.  It  was  an  ear  and  ear  finish. 
Emerson  Tuttle,  being  closely  wrapt  in  his  artistic  studies, 
avoided  the  freezing  fate  of  his  confrere  in  gloom-dispelling, 
and,  by  signing  his  initials  to  all  his  work,  was  considerably 
H.  E.  T.  up  most  of  the  time. 

One   notable   event    preceded    the    spring   elections    in    our 

[36] 


SOPHOMORE  YEAR 

Sophomore  year — the  revivification  of  the  Anonymous  Pam- 
phlet. Prof.  J.  M.  Berdan,  wishing  to  show  his  Age  of  Pope 
Course  (two  hours,  twice  a  week;  subject-matter  same  as  Daily 
Themes)  how  Addison  did  the  trick,  had  surreptitiously  printed 
and  expeditiously  distributed  a  little  sheet  of  high  literary 
excellence  called  "The  Yale  Observer."  Its  purpose,  as  stated, 
was  to  be  "neither  very  witty  nor  very  wise,  but  so-so" — 
though  it  was  both  of  the  former.  (I  did  not  put  that  in  for 
drag,  but  for  verity.)  Be  that  as  it  may.  The  writer  wielded 
wiser  than  he  knew,  for  the  next  year  that  well-known  Eaves- 
dropper, Scandalmonger,  and  Bulldog  Tribe  came  into  being, 
whose  name  is  legion,  and  whose  destination  is  darkness.  Pro- 
fessor Berdan  was  the  unwitting  Voltaire  or  Rousseau  (we 
never  took  the  Renaissance)  to  the  Dantons  and  Marats  of 
the  Neo-Junioric  school  of  incendiaries.  May  nineteen-sixteen 
yield  us  a  Charlotte  Corday! 

As  spring  came  on,  wars  and  rumors  of  wars  floated  around 
our  erstwhile  peaceful  though  Sophomoric  community.  Genial 
Purchaser  of  this  volume  (it  is  never  "Gentle  Reader"  in  this 
age  of  Mammon),  did  you  note  thus  far  in  this  second  fytte,  a 
lack  of  Unity?  Have  no  fear,  I  am  veering  around  to  him 
again.  For  at  this  point  there  enters,  to  the  already  thor- 
oughly embroiled  social  situation,  a  Machiavelli  of  mysterious 
manipulation.  Enter  The  Walking-Delegate  of  The  O'Tooles, 
Capt.  J.  Bishop. 

The  O'Tooles,  as  mentioned  above,  were  the  occupants  of  that 
now  famous  ground  floor  suite  in  Lawrance.  It  is  unnecessary 
to  rename  them ;  by  their  fruits  ye  shall  know  them.  And 
how  their  plans  bore  fruit!  Beyond  the  wildest  dreams  of 
capitalization,  or,  as  Kipling  hath  it: 

"Beyond  the  whing  of  the  Laundry-box,  through   Oval   darkness 

thrown, 

Further  than  rebel  Junior  dar'd,  or  roystering  Fresh  lay  prone, 
Sit  they  with  those — who  knows,  who  knows  what  daring  they 

have  shown?"

HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

A  strictly  worded  but  broadly  interpreted  campaign  agree- 
ment prohibits  me  from  giving  the  preliminary  steps  toward 
the  consummation  of  the  Great  Deal,  and  perhaps  'tis  better 
so.  I  would  hate  to  bore  a  reader  with  statistics.  At  any  rate, 
one  fine  Monday  afternoon  in  March,  when  even  bridge-games 
palled  because  of  the  nervousness  of  the  participants,  someone, 
in  passing  by  a  certain  ground  floor  window,  heard  Somebody 


A  RAINY  TAP  DAY — SOPHOMORE  YEAR 


say  to  several  other  Bodies:  "Then  we'll  stick  together,  won't 
we  ?"  To  which  Earth  repeated  the  loud  amen :  "You're  damn 
right!!"  Now  Somebody-else,  while  peacefully  walking  out 
toward  the  tennis  courts  the  afternoon  before,  had  seen  a  slip 
of  paper  stuck  under  a  threshold  cranny  in  a  very  compromis- 
ing position,  and  had,  simply  from  curiosity,  taken  up  said 
slip  and  perused  its  inscriptions.  To  Somebody-else's  astonish- 
ment, it  bore  a  marked  resemblance  to  the  handwriting  of 

[38] 


SOPHOMORE  YEAR 

another  Somebody;  but  its  brazen  purport  resembled  nothing 
seen  or  heard  of  before  or  since.  So  when  Someone,  in  passing 
by  that  ground  floor  window  on  Monday  afternoon,  heard  a 
half  an  odd  dozen  voices  assenting  in  chorus,  he  began  to  con- 
nect the  written  with  the  spoken  word.  By  that  time  it  was 
too  late  to  change  matters.  But  still  another  Somebody  ran 
and  told.  Hence  this  chronicle. 

We  shall  not  long  forget  that  crisp,  cold  night  in  March; 
the  pious  and  indignant  Senior  meeting  on  Vanderbilt  Fence 
at  six-thirty;  the  hotfoot  despatching  of  a  prohibiting  emis- 
sary to  the  other  end  of  the  Campus  at  six- forty;  the  self- 
incarceration  in  coat-closets  of  a  whole  campaign  committee  at 
six- forty-one ;  the  disgruntled  return  of  said  emissary  at  six- 
forty-five  ;  the  gradual  emergence  of  sentinels  and  campaigners 
from  six- forty-six  to  fifty-nine;  the  Holdups — for  Holdoffs 
they  never  were — at  seven.  By  the  time  the  Bat  tell  clock  had 
ceased  striking,  a  new  page  in  Yale  History  had  been  struck 
off  and  a  new  topic  for  campus  conversation  had  arisen.  To 
this  day,  particularly  in  the  mid-fall  and  late  winter,  it  is  still 
a  favorite.  The  O'Toole  Deal  of  the  spring  of  1912.  The 
only  Yale  Rumpus  that  never  got  into  the  newspapers  was  ours 
to  witness,  classmates ;  we  have  lived  long  enough. 

Immediately  after  the  aforementioned  spring  racket,  some 
rather  more  serious  elections  took  place.  After  the  Class 
Deacons  had  performed  their  priest-like  task  of  pure  addition 
to  our  ballots,  we  found  the  following  men  enrolled  among  the 
Possibilities : 

Morg  Noyes,  competitor  for  Baseball  Managership. 

Henry  Hobson,  competitor  for  Crew  Managership. 

John  Kilbreth,  he  of  the   Spearmint  name,  competitor  for 

Track  Managership. 
Stoddard  King,  Fence  Orator. 

By  this  time  the  weather  was  fairly  well  balmying.  Fellows 
began  to  count  "only  one  more  Saturday  without  a  ball  game" ; 
bock  beer  was  on  tap  (no  Yale  springtide  drool  is  complete

without  that  diabolic  touch!)  ;  Huyler's  lured  the  Waggonites 
of  an  afternoon,  even  as  Ned  Buttress'  cart  lured  Tubby  Clark 
and  Co.  to  many  pleasant  impromptu  coaching  parties  around 
the  Campus  drive.  Old  Joe  Bartlett's  express  wagon  also 
did  yeoman  service  on  many  a  "Seeing  Yale"  tour,  conducted 
by  Bish  and  chaperoned  by  Newberry,  Newberry  and  Newson, 
or,  as  we  always  called  them  for  short,  Romulus,  Remus  and 
the  Wolf. 

We  made  the  Fence  our  own  in  the  grand  old  Yale  way, 
allowing  none  but  the  orthodox  songs  to  emanate  from  its 
sacred  rails — "Wake  Freshmen,"  "Katy  Malone,"  and  "Shall 
I  Wasting,"  being  the  most  often  sinned  against.  We 
opened  up  the  Corinthian  Yacht  Club  with  a  flurry  of  foam  on 
the  Piel-dark  deep,  as  friend  Homer  (not  Swihart,  nor  Dubs, 
but  good,  old  Homer,  Limpy's  friend)  has  it.  We  journeyed 
Yale  Field-ward,  to  watch  the  Blossom  and  the  Harpham  and 
the  Cornish.  The  Gile,  the  Brown,  and  the  Dyer,  all  engaged 
in  their  engrossing  "Swat-the-Fly"  campaign.  Class  crews  put 
forth  on  the  harbor,  class  ball  teams  cut  up  on  Yale  Field.  Our 
little  band  of  village  cut-ups  went  so  far  as  to  capture  the 
Class  championship,  and  incidentally,  their  1914  numerals ;  sing 
glory  to  their  name.  Gurney  Smith,  Jack  Loman  and  Mac 
Hayden  pounded  the  pellet  into  Ty  Cobb's  capacious  paws 
behind  the  plate;  Homer  Swihart,  Life  President  of  the  Inter- 
collegiate Bald-headed  Men's  League,  held  down  the  primary 
pillow;  Tubby  Clark,  he  of  the  dachshund  build,  performed  a 
like  restraining  office  on  the  secondary  cushion;  Yale  Stevens, 
he  of  the  rah-rah  cognomen,  s.  s.-d  in  the  box-score  write-up ; 
and  Pop  Evans  occupied  the  tertiary  throne.  In  the  outer 
gardens,  Nick  Carter,  Sloan  Colt,  Bill  Marting,  and  Ev  Davis, 
the  latter  festooned  with  the  appropriate  smile-ax,  were  attrac- 
tively intertwined  (three  at  a  time,  of  course,  you  stickler  for 
pure  athletics!).  Altogether,  they  were  a  charmingly  aggres- 
sive combination,  to  purloin  the  Harvard  phraseology.  They 
were  there,  gentlemen  classmates !  By  their  hats  ye  have  known 
them. 

[40] 


SOPHOMORE  YEAR 

Omega  Lambda  Chi  came.  Cooney  gave  a  realistic  imper- 
sonation of  a  steel  and  concrete  North  River  pier  by  acting  as 
anchor  in  our  vs.  1915  tug-of-war,  Bish  being  the  tug.  Bert 
Whitehill  and  Eddie  Phelps  did  their  facile  three-legged  stunt 
and  raced  all  comers  off  the  Campus.  Almet  Jenks,  Gurney 
Smith,  Clem  Gile  and  Wash  Patterson  acted  as  traffic  cops,  and 
cowed  the  roaring  mob  with  their  stuffed  clubs  and  cork  hel- 
mets. The  rest  of  the  bibulously  inclined  (not  including  our 
policemen,  of  course,  who  never  drink  when  on  duty — and  they 
are  on  duty  all  the  time)  went  to  the  festivities  disguised  as 
Christians,  their  costumes  being  voted  the  most  original  ever 
seen  on  the  Campus.  At  the  time  of  going  to  press  our  last 
Omega  Lambda  Chi  had  not  been  pulled  off,  so  no  odoriferous 
comparisons  are  available. 

Last  scene  of  all  that  ends  this  strange,  eventful  Sophomore 
History  is  second  childishness  and — mere  oblivion !  In  the 
middle  of  exams  the  tension  snapped.  Once  more  our  eternal 
unity.  The  Bish  trotted  forth  upon  the  Campus  stage  with 
the  famous  series  of  circum-Campus  relays.  The  old  cinder 
track  around  the  historic  dockweed  patch,  now,  alas,  bricked 
over  and  conventionalized  to  the  n-th  degree,  was  dotted  every 
night  with  quarter-milers  in  all  stages  of  nakedness.  "Around 
the  Campus  for  thirty  dollars  a  side !"  was  the  cry,  and  amid 
crashing  of  water  bottles  and  laundry  boxes,  the  race  would 
be  on.  The  stars  smiled  benignantly  down  while  messmates 
and  mismates,  like  Carp  and  Tubby  Clark  raced  against  time 
and  each  other,  endeavoring  to  lower  the  Unity's  fifty-seven 
seconds  flat  and  clad  in  costumes  that  would  put  the  most 
hyper-Gallic  chorus  to  the  blush.  The  more  effete  Juniors 
copied  us — but  with  bicycles  instead  of  our  sturdy  moccasin- 
encased  feet  and  B.  V.  D.'d  limbs.  "Mental  and  physical  effi- 
ciency go  hand  in  hand,"  as  educators  from  President  Eliot  to 
Annette  Kellermann  have  maintained ;  tracing  prehistoric  ances- 
try by  day  and  racing  historic  posterity  by  night,  we  weathered 
exam  week,  and  the  night  before  the  last  exam,  gathered,  for 
the  last  time,  as  a  Yale  Sophomore  Class. 

[41] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

The  occasion,  of  course,  was  that  melancholy  delivery  of  the 
Fence  into  the  eager  hands  of  the  Freshmen,  our  successors  to 
the  blissful  and  eventful  Sophomoredom  which  we  had  just 
drained  to  the  last  drops.  Behind  us  lay  the  most  jarring, 
the  most  interesting,  the  most  instructive  year  in  the  whole 
course,  Lindsay,  Nibs  and  Dick  to  the  contrary,  notwithstand- 
ing. Before  us  lay  the  grim  prospect  of  a  year  of  watchful 
waiting  on  that  barren,  barrack-like  Oval,  the  responsibilities 
of  the  College  on  our  shoulders  and,  possibly,  at  the  end  the 
rewards  of  the  College  on  our  shoulder  blades.  It  was  a  sad 
moment— race  half  run,  course  half  done,  life's  span  half 
spun. 

But  Stod  King  came  to  the  rescue,  as  that  genial  humorist 
has  an  infallible  habit  of  doing.  In  a  never-to-be-forgotten 
Fence  Oration,  he  castigated  the  well-known  and  widely  adver- 
tised Class  of  1915  so  thoroughly  that  not  even  Martin  Luther 
and  Garibaldi  could  blame  them  for  rebellion.  It  was  a  stitch 
in  time — for  had  not  Stod  belabored  them  so  wisely  and  well, 
there  might  by  now  be  no  Yale  College  for -our  sons  unborn 
to  hail.  With  his  last — "Let  me  present  you,  gentlemen — the 
Fence !" — we  stepped  down,  sallied  forth  for  Europe  and  points 
unknown,  and  left  the  world  to  darkness  and  Sophomoric  icon- 
oclasticism. 

The  last  Yale  Class  to  know  the  old  Mory's ;  the  last  Yale 
Class  to  remember  Alumni  Hall ;  the  last  Yale  Class  to  repulse 
a  Freshman  Fence  Rush;  the  last  Yale  Class  to  tread  the 
Campus  cinder-path, — we  graduaturi  vos  salutamus,  men  of 
Yale,  and  our  blessing  be  upon  you ! 

Newbold  Noyes,  take  up  the  story 
Of  how  we  trod  the  path  to  glory !

JUNIOR  YEAR 

I  HAVE  glanced  back  over  the  achievements  of  our  Class 
during  the  years  1912-1913,  and  there  is  but  one  desire  that 
now  permeates  my  being.  I  want  to  write  an  epic.  The  dun 
garb  of  mere  prose  makes  even  my  dispassionate  nature  cringe ; 
the  setting  of  a  beautiful  diamond  in  brass  would  show  a  no 
greater  lack  of  appreciation  of  the  fitness  of  things  than  does 
the  setting  I  must  perforce  give  my  subject.  For  George 
Patterson,  that  adamantine  taskmaster,  has  decreed  that  I 
am  not  to  be  carried  away  by  the  possibilities  of  my  heroic 
subject — and  with  his  stern  injunction,  "Give  'em  facts — and 
a  touch  of  sentiment,"  ringing  in  my  unwilling  ears,  I  set 
myself  to  my  duty.  What  the  possibilities  of  the  correct  treat- 
ment would  have  been,  you  may  judge  for  yourself  from  the 
following  beginning,  which  was  cut  off  in  its  early  prime  by 
Pat's  decree. 

Dean  Jones,  the  Thunder-wielder,  then  did  swear 

A  mighty  oath,  "Lo — summon  my  cohorts! 

For  Homer  mocks  and  Tacitus  doth  jeer. 

Dread  Economics  at  our  very  gates 

Doth  scoff.     Too  long  has  the  attack  been  spared, 

Send  messages  to  summon  my  allies, 

And,  by  great  Zeus,  we'll  teach  these  taunting  foes, 

[45] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

That  Yale  but  little  fears  their  challenge  proud." 
Northward  and  southward,  east  and  west  there  flew 
The  summons,  and  throughout  the  mighty  land 
Where  Yale  holds  sway,  we  heard  the  Great  King's  call, 
Nor  paused,  though  pleasures  beckoned  on  each  side, 
But  to  stern  duty  turned  our  eager  steps. 
"Dean  Jones  has  called — away — away !"    The  cry 
Swept  like  a  storm  across  the  tremb'ling  land, 
And  with  a  brief  farewell — one  last  long  sigh — 
We  rushed  to  take  our  places  at  his  side. 

That  is  as  far  as  I  got,  and  I  like  to  think  that  I  could  have 
done  better  when  once  well  under  way.  But  even  this  brief  intro- 
duction will,  I  feel  sure,  give  you  a  dazzling  glimpse  of  what 
Pat  is  denying  you.  Yet,  though  prose  is  the  enforced  medium, 
even  so  disguised,  these  deeds  of  ours  will  form,  I  must  believe, 
a  sort  of  hymn ! 

To  sum  up  the  material  contained  in  the  foregoing  epic 
spasm,  the  notices  that  the  College  would  resume  its  ministra- 
tions to  our  intellectual  needs  on  September  the  twenty-fifth, 
insinuated  themselves  upon  our  unwilling  consciousnesses  some- 
time prior  to  that  date.  So  we  came  back.  There  was  an  epi- 
demic of  handshaking  for  a  brief  space  of  time,  and  the  mem- 
bers of  the  Class  of  1914  slipped  into  their  various  grooves. 
In  a  curiously  unexpected  manner  the  vacation  immediately 
drifted  into  the  vague  realms  of  memory — and  we  turned  our 
hands  to  the  more  immediate  tasks  before  us. 

Someone,  somewhere,  at  some  time  long  passed,  a  man  who 
was  more  bitterly  disposed  to  cynical  humor  than  was  ever 
Swift  or  Pope,  wrote  a  song  which  deals  with  Juniors  who 
took  their  ease,  while  smoking  pipes  and  singing  glees.  I  have 
heard  this  quaintly  woven  myth  sung.  And  I  have  learned  to 
wonder  just  how  long  ago  it  was  written  and  have  wished  that 
the  author  could  have  been  here  to  watch  1914  take  its  ease. 
He  would  have  had  such  a  splendid  time  laughing  at  his  own 
joke! 

Out  on  the  football  field  Cooney,  Ketcham,  Warren,  Avery, 
Wheeler,  Harbison,  Cornish,  Marting  and  Gile  were  starting

their  labors  which  were 
later  rewarded  with  posi- 
tions on  the  "Varsity." 
Be  it  here  stated  that 
Ketcham  received,  at  a 
later  date,  a  position  on 
the  All-American  team 
and  Cooney  was  placed 
among  the  second  divi- 
sion of  that  stellar 
aggregation.  With

in  each  case,  a  cursory 
remark  or  two  on  the 
facts  which  seem  most 
pertinent  to  us  today. 

And  may   I   also   here 

call  your  attention  to  the  fact  that,  boasting  no  eminence  as  a

you  with  whatever  humor  the  four  histories  as  a  whole  should 
contain.  However,  I  am  bound  to  confess  that  my  decision  is 
not  quite  as  philanthropic  as  it  would  at  first  appear  to  be,  for 
though  I  have  made  a  fairly  complete  series  of  investigations,  no 
one  in  the  Class  can  recall  a  humorous  incident  worthy  of  note 
save  one  in  which  Rufus  King  and  I  were  involved,  and  which  is 
therefore  ineligible  for  treatment.  The  Class,  with  the  admi- 
rable steadiness  which  has  always  been  its  most  striking  attri- 
bute, was  too  busy  making  legitimate  history  to  furnish  that 
type  usually  associated  with  class  books.*

JUNIOR  YEAR 

The  fall  term  passed  with  startling  rapidity,  any  chance  of 
monotony  being  obviated  by  an  exciting  though  not  wholly 
successful  football  season;  the  early  work  in  crew;  the  elimina- 
tion trials  of  the  musical  clubs;  track;  and  the  final  laps  of 
the  Lit.  competition.  Busy  with  either  these  or  some  other 
extra  curriculum  activities,  the  Class  still  found  time  for 
relaxation.  With  the  chance  of  appearing  one  of  that  most 
condemned  of  all  Yale  types — the  men  who  betray  sentiment 
outside  the  objects  toward  which  sentiment  is  conventional- 
ized— I  must  say  here  that  for  many  of  us,  splendid  hours  were 
spent  in  getting  to  know  those  whose  friendship  we  sought. 
Somehow  I  feel  that  this  was  the  biggest  thing  in  all  Junior 
year;  the  development  of  the  friendships  which  we  had  heard 
were  to  be  our  heritage  here,  but  which  up  to  this  time  had  not 
been  experienced  in  their  fullness.  There  were  long  walks 
back  in  the  byways  which  lead  from  the  dusty  highways ;  there 
were  talks  of  an  evening  when  we  learned  that  hitherto  unsus- 
pected individuals  held  the  same  ideals  and  thoughts  that  we 
had  thought  peculiar  to  ourselves  and,  so  thinking,  sought  to 
hide.  And  the  Class  unconsciously  found  itself  welded  together 
in  a  fine  comradeship  which  only  these  hours  could  have 
accomplished. 

Levermore,  P.  Dodge,  Parker,  Hoadley,  Smith,  Lomas, 
Blossom  and  Innis  survived  the  series  of  cuts  to  which  the 
Glee  Club  was  subjected,  and  Phelps,  Spalding,  Morrill,  Herb 
and  Ralph  Semler,  Hill,  and  Johnson  tested  and  proved  the 
old  maxim  relative  to  the  survival  of  the  fittest  on  the  Banjo 
and  Mandolin  organizations.  To  even  the  most  casual  observer 
it  thus  becomes  evident  at  once,  that  no  small  part  of  the  suc- 
cess enjoyed  by  these  clubs  was  due  to  the  efforts  of  our  Class. 
To  provide  a  tyrolean  yodler  and  a  miniature  performer  on  a 
miniature  banjo  on  demand  is  no  small  feat!  Be  it  known 
that  Bill  Innis  of  the  dulcet  bass  and  other  eminent  qualifica- 
tions was  later  elected  leader  of  the  choristers  for  the  ensuing 
year,  while  E.  Phelps,  the  same  prodigy  referred  to  above, 

[49] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 


THE  OLDEST  or  COLLEGE  DAILES  au  Naturel 

received  the  highest  honor  the  Banjo  and  Mandolin  clubs  could 
confer.     S.  Colt  was  elected  manager. 

Work  on  the  Christmas  play — Tolstoi's  "Fruits  of  Cul- 
ture"— had  been  steadily  progressing,  and  the  final  cast 
selected  to  represent  Yale's  talent  in  the  histrionic  field 
included  Fields,  H.  T.  Rogers,  P.  Newberry  and  R.  King. 
Though  the  latter  is  placed  in  a  modest  position  in  the  order 
here  used,  it  was  he  who  was  elected  to  lead  the  club  in  1914. 
Because  of  his  intimacy  with  the  future  president's  eccentrici- 
ties and  a  slight  ability  to  cope  with  them,  rather  than  for  any 
individual  ability,  the  present  scribe  received  the  election  of 
vice  president.  Almet  Jenks  succeeded  to  the  title  of  manager 
of  the  organization,  and  Stoddard  King  became  press  iminagrr. 

While  the  above-mentioned  gentry  were  enjoying  themselves 
to  a  greater  or  less  degree,  the  remainder  of  the  Class  was 
celebrating  the  Christmas  season  throughout  the  country— 
and  it  was  not  till  the  subsequent  return  to  the  Oval  took  place, 
that  material  suitable  for  this  historical  sketch  began  again 
to  be  furnished. 

[50] 


JUNIOR  YEAR 

Back  to  the  winter  term  we  came — the  winter  term,  which  by 
all  the  rights  of  tradition  should  have  been  remarkable  only 
for  the  intensity  of  its  monotonous  drudgery.  Yet  with  the 
enthusiasm  which  has  ever  been  dominant  in  the  Class,  we  threw 
off  the  cloak  which  should,  we  were  told,  be  muffling  our  spirits, 
and  entered  vigorously  upon  our  separate  and  various  tasks. 
Among  the  many  interests  which  claimed  the  attention  of 
various  members  of  the  Class  at  this  season  were  the  Apollo 
musical  clubs,  the  Dramat  smoker,  the  closing  Lit.  competi- 
tion, a  few  sterling  games  of  craps,  squash,  wrestling,  and  the 
preparing  of  the  final  lists  of  dances  for  those  who,  scattered 
throughout  the  snow-clad  land,  awaited  impatiently  for  the 
advent  of  the  Prom. 

The  members  of  1914  who  found  places  on  those  strangely 
heterogeneous  aggregations,  known  as  the  Apollo  Clubs,  be- 
cause someone  else  with  a  sense  of  humor  had  the  original  task 
of  providing  a  name  for  the  organizations,  are  too  numerous  to

be  individually  named.  Suffice  it  to  say  that  both  clubs  were 
1914,  with  a  few  rather  insignificant  exceptions. 

Up  in  the  gymnasium  Captain  Swihart,  S.  Smith  and  Cobb 
were  monopolizing  three  regular  positions  on  the  basket  ball 
quintet.  And  downstairs  in  the  domain  of  Izzy  the  Emperor, 
Avery,  Maclntyre,  Thomas,  Kelley,  and  S.  Dodge  were  taking 
falls  out  of  less  advanced  opponents.  May  I  say  here,  with 
pride  which  is  pardonable  because  of  my  intimacy  with  the 
littlest  champion  of  them  all — that  the  championship  of  the 
East  was  the  reward  for  their  strenuous  efforts. 

And  now  comes  the  Prom.  Yet,  when  an  incident  has  become 
legendary,  to  subject  it  to  an  historical  treatment  seems  lack- 
ing in  delicacy  of  perception.  This  Prom,  of  1913  is  still 
mentioned  with  bated  breath  whenever  champion  long-distance 
dancers  get  together.  There  never  was — there  never  can 
again  be — its  duplicate.  I  sigh  as  I  write  this,  and  yet  it  is 
better  so,  I  must  believe.  Yet  each  of  us  has  had  the  distinction 
of  seeing  ladies  who  danced  thirty-five  miles  in  one  "evening" 
and  lived  to  tell  the  story  to  future  generations.  Thanks  to 
Tom  Daniels  and  his  able  assistants,  Ketcham,  Cornish, 
Walker,  Art  Clark,  Blossom,  Schieffelin,  and  A.  Evans,  the 
Class  is  able  to  claim  with  no  possibility  of  contradiction  the 
most  successful  Promenade  in  the  history  of  the  College.  May 
I  add,  as  an  afterthought,  that  perhaps  the  above-mentioned 
gentlemen  will  see  the  justice  of  conceding  part  of  the  credit 
to  those  visitors  who  smiled  every  foot  of  the  thirty-five  miles, 
and  clapped  with  numbed  hands  for  more  when  "Good  Night, 
Ladies"  had  been  played  for  the  last  time  at  the  Taft  at 
twelve-fifteen  in  the  afternoon. 

When  it  was  all  over,  there  came  the  aftermath  of  labor  made 
slightly  irksome  by  the  recentness  of  our  few  days  of  relaxa- 
tion. But  soon  we  slipped  back  into  our  grooves — and 
found  that  the  Oval,  even  when  utterly  bereft  of  all  save 
memories  of  those  who  had  claimed  it  as  their  own  for  three 
brief  days,  was  a  wholly  attractive  place  of  a  winter's  evening. 
Somehow,  to  me  at  least,  the  winter  nights  there  stand  out  as 

[53] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

one  of  the  happiest  times  of  the  year.  Perhaps  it  is  because 
a  wood  fire  and  the  wind  whipping  the  snow  against  the  window 
draws  boys — or  men,  if  you  will — closer  together.  I  do  not 
know.  But  I  look  back  upon  that  time  as  one  which  I  would 
not  exchange  for  more  than  seems  quite  logical.  I  wonder  if 
it  is  so  with  you. 

The  Lit.  competition  closed  with  Rand  leading  and  Tuttle, 
Bergen,  Paradise,  and  Noyes  filling  out  the  board.  Douglas 
withdrew  his  name — though  he  also  was  well  up  in  the 
competition. 

So  the  winter  wore  on,  one  day  slipping  into  the  next  with 
startling  rapidity.  Any  vague  chance  of  boredom  was  dis- 
persed by  the  revolutionary  attitude  of  the  Class  of  1915  in 
regard  to  Yale's  social  system.  Though  our  Class,  at  the 
time,  came  into  no  direct  contact  with  them  over  the  subject, 
it  is  needless  to  say  that  a  lively  interest  was  aroused  by  their 
attitude,  regarded,  as  it  was,  in  the  various  lights  of  wisdom, 
folly,  presumption  and  self-sacrifice.  But  the  movement  has 
been  too  generally  advertised  to  warrant  anything  more  than 
mere  mention  in  an  article  of  this  type ! 

Easter  came  and  went,  and  its  passing  found  us  back  on 
the  Oval,  with  a  curious  undercurrent  of  excitement  evidencing 
itself  throughout  the  Class.  Baseball,  with  Captain  Blossom 
directing,  claimed  the  attention  of  the  College  from  an  athletic 
standpoint.  Cornish,  Gile,  Harpham,  C.  Brown,  and  Dyer 
had  won  positions  as  regulars,  and  1914  felt  that  it  was 
admirably  represented.  Of  the  season,  suffice  it  to  say  that  it 
was  the  most  memorable  in  the  history  of  Yale  baseball.  On 
the  track,  Cooney,  Douglas,  Scotten,  Harbison,  and  Bob  Cook 
were  proving  their  value  to  the  team,  and  Gates,  Stanley,  Allen 
Evans,  Lockwood,  Kenyon,  and  S.  Johnson  were  representing 
the  Class  in  tennis. 

The  fifteenth  of  May  was  soon  upon  us  and  passed  with  no 
startling  phenomena  to  distinguish  it  from  any  other  day  of 
that  admirable  month.  The  Class  went  to  and  came  away  from 

[54] 


JUNIOR  YEAR 

the  Oak  tree  with  a  feeling  of  utter  confidence  in  the  discrimi- 
nation and  justice  which  were  shown  there. 

There  is  but  one  other  topic  which  must  be  mentioned  before 
I  put  aside  my  blunted  pencil  and  turn  out  the  midnight  oil.  I 
mention  it  with  feelings  of  extreme  reticence.  But  be  it  said 
that  had  Bill  Harriman  seen  his  way  clear  to  putting  more 
than  one  1914  man  upon  the  crew,  if  he  could  have  found  a  few 
more  Lippincotts,  the  opinion  might  well  be  hazarded  that  the 
outcome  on  the  Thames  would  have  been  less  bitter.  Which  is 
just  another  way  of  saying  Bill  proved  worthy  of  his  seat  in 
the  boat. 

So  ends  my  task.  I  have  only  given  the  barest  outline  of 
the  larger  things  that  went  to  make  up  the  Junior  year  for 
us.'  The  little  things,  that  played  important  parts  in  the 
lives  of  each  man,  are  what  went  to  make  that  year  splendid 
in  some  intangible  way.  As  we  look  back,  as  each  of  us  looks 
back,  there  are  little,  outwardly  insignificant  scenes  that  will 
always  lurk  in  our  minds — the  trifles  that  have  taught  us 
tolerance  and  sympathy  and  appreciation  of  our  classmates — 
the  finest  large  group  of  men  we  know  of.  I  would  not  write 
of  these  moments  if  I  could.  Yet  it  can  do  no  harm  to  ask 
you  to  look  back  with  me  over  experiences  that  seemed  little 
at  the  time — yet  somehow  loom  larger  with  even  the  slightly 
increased  perspective  of  one  year.  I  do  ask  you.  For  the 
chance  to  sit  by  myself  for  a  few  hours  and  review,  month  by 
month,  the  happenings  that  went  to  make  up  our  life  of  a  year 
ago,  is  one  for  which  I  am  very  grateful.  That  chance  is  each 
of  ours  for  the  wishing. 

And  in  closing,  let  me  say  that  which  has  become  all  too 
evident  to  you,  I  fear,  the  Class  of  1914  is  far  more  profi- 
cient at  making  than  at  writing  history.

SENIOR  YEAR 

IGNITY  and  other  graces  that  supposedly  beset  Seniors, 
like  the  leopard's  spots,  come  early.  This  history,  there- 
fore must  begin  instantly  upon  the  end  of  Junior  year:  such 
splendid  creatures  as  Seniors  cannot  lapse  into  nothingness 
during  the  summer.  That  would  upset  every  tradition  of 
sweatered  fiction.  But  to  narrate,  Henry  Ketcham,  whose  name 
is  variously  woven  through  this  tale,  indecorously  mounts  a 
freight  car  at  daybreak.  He  yawns,  and  stretches,  and  the 
engineer,  presumably  heeding  a  signal,  nearly  precipitates  a 
disaster.  Harold  Saylor  almost  drove  cows  to  pasture  in  mid- 
ocean.  And  Gurney  Smith,  who  also  went  abroad,  experienced 
some  trouble  in  changing  English  shillings  into  Scotch  mac- 
dougalls.  If  the  brains  of  the  rest  of  the  Class  had  been 
inspected  at  any  time  in  the  vacation,  with  the  same  scrutiny 
that  the  Romans  used  in  consulting  the  entrails  of  the  cow,  the 
only  revelations  fit  for  augury  would  have  been  sunburnt,  or 
enthralled.  There  was  the  usual  alliance  between  heat  and 
hedonism.  Nor  was  it  the  disparagement  of  the  Thames  that 
made  both  inevitable.  The  delegates  at  Northfield,  to  be  sure, 
weltered  in  the  torrid  breezes  of  conscience.  But  even  Bill 
Warren  regained  his  composure  in  time  to  exploit  the  facetious 
before  the  lace  and  ruffles  of  East  River. 

[57] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Perhaps  we  had  better  leave  the  Seniors  until  September. 
The  European  expeditions,  otherwise,  would  soon  make  this  a 
Baedeker,  or  the  American  adventures,  some  of  them,  at  least- 
would  quickly  make  it  a  hotel  advertisement.  But,  before  seek- 
ing New  Haven,  we  must  mention,  or  exploit,  a  certain  street 
brawl  that  occurred  in  Portsmouth,  N.  H.  Sloan  Colt,  Clem 
Gile,  Tom  Holt  and  several  others  of  equal  gravity,  having 
turned  seamen  and  gained  considerable  maritime  experience  and 
confidence,  the  customary  wayward  rolling  of  the  tongue  and 
rolling  swagger  included,  determined  to  seek  terrestrial  solace 
at  a  local  moving  picture  show.  They  were  not  disappointed. 
But  after  enjoying  a  few  minutes  of  scenic  delight,  they  fell 
into  legal  difficulties.  An  officer  said  that  the  little  man,  too,  had 
to  pay  full  fare.  Tom  briskly  made  a  seamanlike  and  ample 
protest.  Ejection  instantly  followed,  and  once  outside,  the 
mariners  began  to  demoralize  the  Portsmouth  police  force. 
Two  officers  reeled  before  sturdy  fists,  and  Tom,  who  had  only 
encouraged  the  fighting — was  captured,  while  the  real  com- 
batants escaped.  The  small  offender  was  bailed  and  fabulously 
fined. 

Now  for  New  Haven !  One  nameless  classmate  missed  the 
Bar  Harbor  Express  catastrophe  on  September  1  by  eight 
minutes.  The  first  Senioric  arrivals  missed  it  by  eight  days. 
Then  our  burly  classmates  fitly  paved  our  way.  On  arriving 
at  the  gym,  Bill  Marting  merely  took  off  his  coat  and  trousers ; 
the  football  armament,  like  the  pajamas  of  an  overtime  sleeper, 
was  waiting  underneath.  Ben  Avery  was  horny-handed  from 
farming,  "Cooch"  from  running  a  motor-boat,  and  Nate 
Wheeler  from  winning  the  Intercollegiate  golf  championship. 
But  the  tempers  of  all  were  unperverted.  Our  heroes  on  the 
football  field  toiled  under  a  blistering  sun,  until  they  became 
mere  minions  of  perspiration  and  stiffness.  Every  Senior  in 
town  had  a  "charley-horse." 

They  did  not  even  limp  to  the  station  to  meet  their  arriving 
"classmates."  But  the  worshippers  came,  anyway,  despite  the 
unheeding  idols.  There  was  a  day  of  aching  hands  and  common-

places,  and  the  customary  rites  to  the  god  "Principius."  The 
parading  may  have  lacked  gaiety  and  abandon,  but  the  effect 
of  torchlights  on  sunburned  faces  was  superb  and  grotesque. 
Ev  Davis'  forehead  twinkled  light  and  dark,  and  Admiral 
Hobson's  sober  countenance  was  distorted  into  a  most  improper 
post-Bacchic  leer.  When  the  first  Freshman  fell,  Dick  Hill, 
forgetting  himself,  exclaimed  "Oh,  la!"  and  instantly  he  and 
"Cooch"  began  an  intimacy  that  even  boarding  at  Commons 
could  not  break.  And  when  the  dust  from  the  stampeding  of 
the  undergraduate  cattle  had  settled,  Dwight  Hall  emerged  with 
its  customary  salt  above,  and  savor  below,  and  would  not 
wait  for  Lorrin  Shepard,  the  president,  to  return  and  open 
it.  The  News,  mainspring  of  the  undergraduate  world,  began 
to  appear.  The  Glee  Club  once  more  conducted  its  accustomed 
trials,  where  Bill  InnN  was  forced  to  listen  to  the  croakings

of  many  a  tuneless  bird.  And  the  machine,  at  last  competently 
guided,  was  in  motion. 

It  gathered  momentum  so  slowly  for  several  weeks  that 
nothing  happened.  K.  Rand,  deserted  by  his  Bergen,  con- 
tinued to  live  at  the  Taft.  Boz  Hawley  aped  the  eagle,  in 
appearance,  rather  than  the  owl.  But  there  was  hooting  in 
Haughton.  Tom  Daniels  began  his  ceaseless  march  of  con- 
quest in  New  Haven  society.  Billy  Lippincott  recovered  from 
palsy.  Dick  Dyer  was  forced,  to  the  great  sorrow  of  his 
friends,  to  forsake  learning  for  the  dove-cotes  of  Chester, 
because  of  feeble  eyes.  His  departure  was  but  the  preface  to 
a  later  migration  from  a  certain  entry  in  Vanderbilt. 

The  Class  indulged  in  further  lamentation  over  Professor 
Tinker's  absence,  and  particularly  over  his  amazing  discrimi-

nation  against  Yale's  pride,  when  the  class  behind  was  so  much 
better  qualified  for  a  professorial  slight.  Professor  Morris, 
too,  fell  subject  to  an  unexpressed  rebuke  in  not  giving  his 
Horace  and  Lucretius.  But  the  Class,  despite  disappointment, 
with  the  exception  of  a  certain  nonchalant  member  of  Phi  Beta 
Kappa  and  several  others  rooming  not  far  from  the  subse- 
quently whiskered  Bishop,  went  to  work.  Even  Pete  Newberry 
and  Carter  Phelps  sometimes  went  to  class. 

With  recitations  once  more  established,  Osborn  Hall,  the 
"two-horned  toad,"  leapt  into  prominence.  Even  outside  of 
classes,  Seniors  flocked  there,  casting  ballots.  At  the  first  elec- 
tion, the  Class  re-elected  Henry  Ketcham,  Doc  Cornish  and 
Morgan  Noyes.  They  made  the  Senior  Council  without  loss  of 
constituency  from  any  preceding  election.  The  Council  was 
made  representative  of  Yale.  Ben  Avery  was  chosen,  and  the 
three  remaining  places  on  the  Council  were  filled  by  Stod  King, 
Jack  Blossom  and  Bill  Schieffelin. 

There  is  always  something  facetious  in  statistics,  or  even  in 
bare  facts,  where  truth  can  grin  at  itself,  fearing  no  lies.  It 
is  true  that  Almet  Jenks  was  elected  historian,  that  Stod  King 
was  elected  orator,  that  George  Patterson  was  elected  Class 
Secretary.  Hence  the  magnificence  of  this  volume.  The  Class 
should  thank  him  for  Herculean  labors  past  and  yet  to  come. 
How  these  men  could  be  chosen  while  football  held  such  sway, 
one  can  but  vaguely  understand.  But  how  the  Class  could 
have  elected  unathletic  K.  Rand,  entirely  on  faith,  will  ever  be 
a  mystery.  In  choosing  him  Class  Poet,  the  Seniors  did  not 
bestow  more  honor  than  do  cats  in  beholding  kings.  They 
merely  saved  the  Class  from  walking  into  the  world  Midas- 
eared.  The  volume  entitled,  "The  Dirge  of  the  Sea  Children," 
is  the  one  achievement  in  which  the  Class  of  1914  will  take 
enduring  pride. 

It  was  about  this  time,  local  elections  ended,  and  national 
not  begun,  that  perhaps  the  most  notable  Senior  institution 
founded  by  the  present  Seniors  leapt  forth.  The  Apostles,  a

lowed  fare  opposite  the  Yale  Elizabethan  Club.  In  clamoring 
to  join,  the  entire  Class  lost  its  bashfulness.  But  the  Apos- 
tolic succession  was  rigidly  preserved.  The  epicureans,  one  by 
one,  were  admitted.  Kenny  Moore  grew  dangerously  stout.

flourished  until  February,  when  sheer  stoutness  forced  it  to 
dissolve.  And  where  these  gastronomic  giants  formerly  fed 
entered  the  Sheffield  hordes. 

The  only  light  in  October  that  even  aspired  to  outshine  this 
Apostolic  glare  flickered  at  Princeton.  Seniors,  luckily,  had 
little  part  in  it.  The  foolish  virgins,  who  neglected  to  bring 
the  victorious  oil,  were  either  graduates  or  underclassmen. 
Ken  Moore,  indeed,  was  forced  to  ride  in  the  wake  of  misery.

HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Herm  Rogers  pulled  a  splendid  oar,  but  was  hopelessly 
impeded  by  his  seven  companions  and  by  the  English  stroke. 
A  few  days  later  the  organ  of  the  undergraduate  world  pealed 
in  the  committee's  ear;  and  the  rowing  talent  of  the  world  was 
quickly  called. 

Several  others,  too,  took  to  the  water,  or  at  least  the 
marshes.  Julian  Bishop,  the  unofficial  mascot  of  the  Class, 
John  Banks  and  one  or  two  adjacent,  but  transitory  spirits, 
entered  a  conspiracy  with  Dean  J-n-s,  for  the  annihilation  of 
Ducks.  Expeditions  started  from  the  Vanderbilt  suite,  where 
the  entire  party  slept,  for  the  wilds  of  Connecticut,  at  three. 
When  the  daybreak  ushered  in  hilarity,  the  Dean,  it  was 
rumored,  excused  a  mark  for  every  bird  that  fell.  John  Banks 
then  conceived  the  idea  of  shooting  clay  pigeons. 

Possibly  the  tremor  thus  provoked  enjoined  the  Dean  to 
muzzle  up  the  Prom.  Mr.  Chittenden,  like  love  in  Catullus, 
sneezed  approbation  right  and  left.  But  elsewhere  volcanic 
and  instaneous  objections  appeared,  and  quickly  disappeared. 
Between  regulations  and  the  Junior  Class,  the  Prom,  seemed 
doomed.  The  realization  of  it  was  a  distinct  surprise. 

Bill  Schieffelin,  meanwhile,  vented  his  political  instincts  at 
the  New  York  polls.  He  was  assisted  by  several  other  Seniors, 
civically  disposed.  Pat  and  Tom  Daniels  fell  heir  to  Bowery 
fighting;  each  received  a  few  stitches.  Clem  Gile's  knee  was 
wrenched.  At  the  Field,  too,  our  matinee  idols,  one  by  one, 
were  afflicted.  The  succession  of  injuries  devastated  the  ranks 
of  football  playing  Seniors.  The  most  unfortunate  fell  upon 
the  Cornish  jaw.  With  that  smashed,  the  game  was  lost;  and 
afterwards,  although  the  Thors  and  Odins,  and  all  their  foot- 
ball underlings  and  overlings,  tried  to  look  pleasant,  and  to 
exhale  encouragement,  their  smiles  seemed  sadly  mechanical. 
Ketch's  team,  indeed,  began  to  improve;  and  depression  van- 
ished like  fog  before  a  burning  sun.  The  College  was  carried 
by  enthusiasm  to  the  point  of  ferocity.  Jack  Appleton,  one  of 
last  year's  left-overs,  justified  his  presence  in  our  Class  by 
kindling  that  fire  of  exuberance  which  so  quickly  spread  into

a  conflagration.  It  was  several  days  before  the  Princeton 
game,  when  Jack  decided  upon  a  parade.  He  hired  a  band.  It 
started  from  Vanderbilt  trailing  but  a  few  bubbles.  It 
returned  to  Welch,  having  traversed  the  Campus,  York  Street 
and  Sheff.,  followed  by  the  entire  University.  Not  content 
with  an  hour  of  cheering  under  Ketch's  window,  it  encamped  in 
front  of  the  Taft,  where  the  1888  Champions  were  dining,  and 
immortalized  itself  with  noise.  Surely  this  helped  the  football 
playing  Seniors  to  befool  Princeton.  In  the  Harvard  game, 
Ketch,  Bill  Warren,  Ben  Avery,  Bill  Marting,  Cooch  Cooney, 
and  Nate  Wheeler  joined  with  the  others  from  different 
classes,  in  giving  their  strength  and  courage  utterly,  despite 
predestined  failure. 

It  was  with  the  fervor  of  the  Whiffenpoofs,  who,  I  should 
have  mentioned,  made  their  usual  cloven-hoofed  gesticulations 
at  the  Brown  game,  that  "Goose"  Dun,  Jack  Blossom,  George 
Lord  and  Ev  Davis  left  town  for  Thanksgiving.  They  de- 
parted at  once,  but  separately.  Others  would  fain  have  done 
likewise.  Their  example,  indeed,  was  widely  imitated.  Some- 
what later  in  the  year  the  Senior  Class  seemed  to  have  trouble 
in  surviving  an  epidemic  of  engagements.  Many  rushlights  of 
love,  unknown  and  hitherto  unsuspected,  revealed  their  statis- 
tical gleam.  But  the  Class  could  not  bother  with  such  stuff 
and  nonsense,  despite  the  song  which  speaks  of  breaking  hearts 
in  Senior  year,  and  instead  rejoiced  that  Ketcham  and  Bill 
Marting  made  the  second  All-American. 

Singing  and  acting,  that  followed  soon,  bridged  the  vacation 
with  traveling  delight.  The  posthumous  writings  of  S.  Sloan 
Colt  will  doubtless  describe  the  separate  exploits  in  a  Southern 
trip.  The  Glee  Club  justly  received  much  democratic  applause, 
but  the  Mandolin  Club  of  Eddie  Phelps  was  the  best,  so  critics 
thought,  that  ever  represented  Yale.  And  the  three  one-act 
plays  of  the  Dramat,  prompted  by  the  Mitchell  Moose,  where 
the  two  Kings,  combined  with  Nibs  Noyes,  brought  delight  to 
many  an  Eastern  or  Western  playgoer. 

It  was  shortly  after  the  vacation  that  the  Yale  Daily  News,

upon  the  insistence  of  the  Senior  editors,  gave  the  University 
a  lecture  on  a  current  subject — Cow  Boy  Ballads,  by  Pro- 
fessor John  Lomax.  Then  Lorrin  Shepard  was  elected  presi- 
dent of  the  Intercollegiate  Temperance  League,  with  Bill 
Warren  as  proselyte.  Annie  Russell  came  and  went.  Bishop 
vented  further  imprecations  in  the  Dean's  office.  A  few  more 
Seniors  successively  filled  the  position  of  basket  ball  captain, 
and  then  there  came  the  mid-year  exams.  Our  Seven  Solons 
here  found  enough  of  the  ethically  unmentionable  to  justify  an 
honor  system.  They  went  to  the  useless  trouble  and  expense 
of  creating  one,  but  some  people  felt  it  wise  to  have  dishonesty 
observed.  The  Council  found  horrors  within  examinations,  and 
it  found  still  others,  more  terrible,  outside.  It  had  to  shoot  at 
larger  and  less  theoretical  game  in,  and  not  far  from,  the 
Taft.  The  Grill  was  giving  forth  contagion  to  the  under- 
graduate world.  But  exotic  dancing  and  liquor  can  be  com- 
pounded into  no  mentionable  tale.  There  was,  thanks  to  the 
vigilance  of  the  Taft  directors  and  the  Dean,  a  speedy  and 
lasting  reformation,  happy  for  even  the  few  departing.  The 
Prom,  followed  merrily  and  unsuspecting:  Yale  grew  fair  and 
full  of  dancing.  The  condensation  of  it  into  two  days 
seemed  not  at  all  amiss:  it  never  flagged.  The  brief  vacation 
afterwards  permitted  some  recovery  from  physical  exhaustion, 
and  a  Prom.-floor  not  overcrowded. 

The  squash  team,  graced  by  L.  Bradford,  A.  Evans,  and 
others,  then  began  its  round  of  social  athletic  contests.  The 
1914  News  Board  retired  bloody  but  unbowed.  Its  chairman 
and  Morgan  Noyes  enlightened  the  returning  graduates. 
Forbes-Robertson  played  Hamlet,  on  a  certain  Saturday  night, 
and  bade  New  Haven  a  last  farewell — and  Hugh  Harbison,  who 
had  accompanied  part  of  the  Elizabethan  Club,  was  instantly 
called  "cultured."  The  swimming,  basket  ball,  wrestling,  gym 
and  hockey  teams  performed  with  some  success.  McHcnry 
sang,  "The  mountaineers,  they  flap  their  ears."  Sigma  Xi 
elected  Homer  Hasenpflug  Dubs,  Ben  Avery,  Van  Noyes  Ver- 
planck,  Gill  Jones,  Lorrin  Shepard,  and  Bill  Schieffelin.  The

SENIOR  YEAR 

Senior  Statistics,  which  shortly  appeared,  proved  all  such 
statistics  fatuous  and  absurd,  and,  it  must  be  confessed,  proved 
the  Class  very  conventional.  "Crossing  the  Bar,"  Jim  Don- 
nelly and  Sothern  were  forced  to  endure  still  another 
re-election.  "Lorna  Doone"  was  high  among  the  favorite 
novels,  while,  as  a  prose  writer,  Blackmore,  its  author, 
received  hardly  a  single  vote.  Other  singular  absurdities,  out 
of  consideration  for  the  Class,  will  not  be  recorded. 

Of  the  large  men,  Cooney  afforded  pleasure  and  gained 
popularity  by  playing  baby  in  the  hole,  and  Hugh  Harbison 
won  fame  by  a  gigantic  put  of  the  shot  in  Washington.  Of 
the  small,  Boz  Hawley  closed  a  delightful  year  of  the  Record 
with  interminable  eloquence  as  toastmaster.  K.  Rand  actually 
appeared  at  the  Lit.  banquet,  and  did  not  sleep,  though  one 
speaker  repeated  himself  for  fifty-nine  minutes.  This  was  a 
Yale  record  which  even  the  undergraduates  present  were  not 
over  eager  to  see  established.  Nor  were  they  more  anxious  to 
hear  the  uncouth  remarks  which  tainted  part  of  Phi  Beta 
Kappa's  democratic  feast. 

It  is  with  an  episode  where  Ik  Crane  and  Bob  Scotten  un- 
intentionally figured  in  a  noon-day  shower  bath,  or  with  the 
appearance  of  William  Butler  Yeats,  that  this  history,  as  a 
history,  closes.  What  lies  behind  Fool's  Day,  each  Senior  can 
most  fitly  picture.  Athletic  championships  which,  we  pro- 
test, are  not  Yale's  greatest  need,  we  still  can  hope,  will  come 
during  the  spring.  Glorious  and  unexpected  development,  we 
trust,  will  also  come  to  every  Senior  and  with  it  the  enthu- 
siasm that  will  drive  1914  far  into  the  waiting  world. 
Surely  the  Class  has  men  fit  for  leading  every  splendid  work. 
Affairs  can  boast  the  ceaseless  energy  of  John  Kilbreth, 
George  Patterson,  and  Lawry  Marks.  Scholarship  has  re- 
vealed Kendrick  Burrough,  the  classicist,  Warren  Lowenhaupt, 
the  philosopher,  and  Stoddard  King.  And  never  before,  to  our 
knowledge,  has  any  class  produced  so  much  undergraduate 
creative  force.  Each  art  has  its  fitting  exponent.  K.  Rand

the  humorists,  Almet  Jenks  the  playwright,  Emerson  Tuttle

undergraduate  ever  elected  to  the  American  Guild  of  Organists, 
Dale  Parker  and  Bill  Innis,  singers,  and  Eddie  Phelps  playing 
upon  nearly  every  known  string  instrument — the  work  of  these 
men,  of  such  promise,  has  added  largely  to  the  pleasure  of 
Senior  year.  Of  this  year  the  depth  and  breadth  and  meaning 
lie  too  near  the  heart  to  bear  the  probing  of  another's  hand.

ATHLETICS 

Athletics  are  not,  as  some  of  the  newspapers  would  have  it, 
the  chief  purpose  for  which  Yale  exists.  The  Campus  is 
something  more  than  a  baseball  field,  and  the  "football  king," 
who  "goes  punting  around  all  day"  is  more  familiar  in  the 
pages  of  puerile  literature  than  in  real  life.  But  just  as  truly, 
athletics  do  form  one  of  the  most  important  features  of  modern 
college  life,  and  success  in  them  is  rightly  accorded  full  meas- 
ure of  admiration  and  gratitude.  As  we  leave  New  Haven, 
among  the  keenest  and  the  happiest  memories  we  take  with  us 
are  of  certain  tense  and  throbbing  moments  when,  although 
perhaps  only  mere  lookers-on,  we  have  felt  the  defenders  of 
Harvard  or  Princeton  weaken  and  the  tide  of  battle  turn, 
momentarily  or  ultimately,  in  favor  of  Yale.  For  the  wonder- 
ful and  satisfying  thing  about  it  all  is,  that  in  these  moments 
all  Yale  men  are  one,  all  feel  the  tug  of  the  same  intense  desire, 
all  are  merged  and  submerged  in  one  common  cause.  And  we 
leave  college  truer  to  Yale  and  truer  to  each  other  because  of 
these  rare  moments. 

"Moral  victories,"  "lessons  from  defeat,"  "sport  for  sport's 
sake"  notwithstanding,  athletics  are  valueless  unless  played  to 
win.  And  judged  by  this  standard,  the  most  optimistic  must 
conclude  that  athletics  at  Yale,  while  the  Class  of  1914  has 
been  in  College,  have  been  at  their  lowest  ebb.  Stripped  of 
sentiment,  shorn  of  extenuations  and  excuses,  the  bare  facts 
speak  for  themselves.  In  football  we  have  seen  Princeton 
defeated  but  once,  Harvard  never.  In  baseball  we  have  seen, 
in  the  three  seasons  we  have  witnessed,  one  series  taken  from 
Princeton  and  one  from  Harvard,  although  last  year  Yale 
was  generally  conceded  the  intercollegiate  championship.  The 
track  team  has  done  somewhat  better,  winning  twice  from  each 
of  our  rivals,  and  taking  second  place  in  the  Intercollegiates 
in  our  Sophomore  year.  Crew  has  been  most  discouraging  of 
all,  and  we  have  had  the  heartrending  misfortune  of  seeing  a 
Harvard  crew  lead  Yale  across  the  line  at  New  London  three 

[77]

ATHLETICS 

consecutive  years,  as  well  as  the  added  humiliation  of  being 
defeated  twice  on  Lake  Carnegie  by  Princeton.  In  the  minor 
sports  Yale  has  done  better.  The  wrestling  team,  although 
not  entered  in  the  Intercollegiates,  has  virtually  won  the  inter- 
collegiate championship  for  three  years,  due  largely  to  the 
remarkable  and  consistent  work  of  Ben  Avery,  admittedly  the 
best  wrestler  in  the  colleges.  The  golf  team  has  shown  its 
conservatism  and  conformity  to  an  old  tradition  by  winning 
the  intercollegiate  match  all  three  years,  and  at  the  end  of 
Junior  year  Nate  Wheeler  illustrated  the  truth  of  the  fable  of 
the  "Lion  and  the  Mouse"  by  capturing  the  individual  title. 
The  swimming  team  took  premier  honors  two  of  the  three 
seasons  we  have  witnessed,  the  gymnasium  team  has  had  the 
same  record,  while  the  soccer  team  has  won  one  intercollegiate 
championship  during  our  college  course.  All  in  all,  for  a  Uni- 
versity which  can  be  satisfied  with  a  position  nowhere  but  at 
the  top,  surely  not  an  enviable  record ! 

For  the  unsatisfactory  results  no  excuses  can  condone,  nor 
can  tears  shed  now  avail.  Did  Omar  know  something  of  the 
relentless  cruelty  of  the  score  board  when  he  sang: 

"The  Moving  Finger  Writes,  and  having  writ 
Moves  on;  nor  all  your  piety  and  wit 
Shall  lure  it  back  to  cancel  half  a  line; 
Nor  all  your  tears  wash  out  a  Word  of  it"? 

But  we  cannot  compare  the  results  of  athletics  for  the  past 
three  years  with  the  record  of  former  Yale  teams  without  one 
question  coming  continually  to  the  front — "Why?"  And  the 
answer  to  that  question  contains  abundant  hope  f0r  a  far 
brighter  athletic  future.  For  years  Yale  had  a  corner  on 
athletic  knowledge.  It  was  the  foremost  laboratory  for  indi- 
vidual research  and  experimentation,  and,  as  a  graduate  in 
close  touch  with  affairs  athletic  recently  remarked,  "Yale  was 
always  two  years  ahead  of  the  crowd."  Then  came  a  change. 
Other  colleges  woke  up,  improved  their  coaching  systems — 
in  short,  beat  Yale  at  her  own  game.  Perhaps  Yale  aided 
them  by  a  sort  of  a  blind  confidence  in  the  infallibility  of  "the 

[79] 


ATHLETICS 

system,"  perhaps  by  a  slight  hesitation  in  the  pursuit  of  pro- 
gressive ideas.  At  any  rate,  the  Class  of  1914  entered  just  as 
the  results  of  changed  conditions  were  becoming  manifest.  The 
history  of  athletics  during  our  course  in  college  has  been  the 
history  of  attempts  to  readjust  our  sports  to  a  new  situation 
in  which  Yale  must  struggle  for  her  supremacy  in  the  field  of 
athletic  knowledge  and  science.  Now,  as  we  are  about  to  leave, 
the  signs  indicate  that  the  problems  are  at  least  on  the  way 
toward  solution,  and  we  have  every  right  to  look  for  results. 

We  have  seen  the  elimination  of  the  old  system  of  putting 
a  graduate  just  out  of  college  in  charge  of  the  football  team, 
and  next  fall  the  Eleven  will  be  in  the  hands  of  a  mature, 
experienced  instructor,  a  man  who  has  made  a  study  of  the 
game,  who  does  not  bow  down  before  the  fetish  of  a  "system," 
but  who  is  on  the  alert  for  new  ideas  in  keeping  with  the  new 
game.  The  baseball  team  has  been  put  in  the  hands  of  a  Yale 
man  who  has  already,  in  two  years,  more  than  demonstrated 
his  superiority  over  any  college  coach  in  the  country — who 
has  brought  order  out  of  chaos,  and  put  the  team  on  a  settled 
working  basis. 

Then  the  much-discussed  "crew  situation" !  Our  Freshman 
year  saw  the  complete  collapse  of  the  Kennedy  stroke,  and  in 
Sophomore  year  an  attempt  was  made  to  put  things  in  the  hands 
of  the  graduates,  but  the  result  was  hardly  more  satisfactory. 
Next  year  affairs  were  in  the  hands  of  undergraduate  coaches, 
and  the  English  stroke  was  copied  as  closely  as  possible.  But  in 
spite  of  the  most  heroic  efforts  on  the  part  of  the  coaches  and 
the  members  of  the  crew,  the  result  was  disastrous.  This  year 
Captain  Denegre  seems  to  have  evolved  the  sanest  and  most 
practical  plan  yet  attempted.  With  Mr.  Armstrong  at  the 
head,  to  represent  the  graduates,  and  with  the  active  coaching 
in  the  hands  of  Mr.  Giannini  and  Mr.  Nichols,  two  men  expe- 
rienced in  coaching  as  well  as  in  rowing,  there  is  every  indi- 
cation that  things  are  on  a  sound  footing,  on  a  footing  which 
will,  eventually  if  not  immediately,  bring  success.  In  track 
we  have  seen  the  acquisition  of  Mr.  Queal  to  assist  Johnnie 

[81] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Mack  in  training  the  distance  men.  So,  in  three  and  a  half 
years,  we  have  seen  a  change  in  the  policy  of  every  sport. 
The  Class  of  1914  may  find  some  comfort  in  the  fact  that,  if 
not  successful  in  winning  games,  it  has  at  least  seen  the  ath- 
letic problems  bequeathed  by  former  generations  faced,  and, 
we  hope,  solved. 

The  athletic  situation  has  changed  in  one  other  respect  far 


A  SCENE  AT  THE  FIELD — 1913  BASEBALL  SEASON 


more  important  than  the  question  of  coaching — the  enormous 
increase  in  athletic  facilities,  actual  and  planned.  Enough 
work  has  been  done  already  on  the  Bowl  so  that  it  is  at  least  a 
semi-reality  rather  than  a  Utopian  vision.  Plans  are  in  the 
hands  of  graduates  (so  energetic  and  so  enthusiastic  that  thnv 
is  every  assurance  that  the  plans  will  pass  from  the  realm  of 
thought  into  the  realm  of  matter  at  the  earliest  possible  mo- 
ment) which  provide  for  a  new  baseball  field  with  steel  covered

stands  so  large  that  the  returning  graduate  will  no  longer  get 
cramps  in  his  arm  from  holding  a  parasol  over  his  wife  in  left 
field,  for  a  track  with  stands  large  enough  to  enable  Yale  to 
hold  the  Intercollegiates  on  her  own  ground,  for  a  clubhouse 
equipped  with  dressing  rooms,  squash  courts,  etc.,  for  enough 
baseball  fields  and  tennis  courts  to  enable  everyone  to  play — in 
fact,  for  an  athletic  Elysium  in  which  every  want  is  satisfied ! 


HILLHOUSE  COURTS  IN  ACTION 


The  baseball  cage  has  been  erected,  providing  an  opportunity 
for  the  team  to  get  actual  practice  as  long  before  the  Southern 
trip  as  is  desired,  and  providing  a  suitable  winter  practicing 
ground  for  the  football,  track  and  soccer  teams.  The  Adee 
boathouse  has  been  completed,  making  it  possible  for  a  much 
larger  number  of  men  to  row  than  formerly.  A  few  new  tennis 
courts  have  been  added  to  the  equipment  on  the  Hillhouse  prop- 
erty. The  old  Yale  Golf  Club,  with  its  unique  course,  has  been 

[83] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

discontinued,  and  undergraduates  have  been  permitted  to  join 
the  new  Racebrook  Country  Club,  where  there  are  opportuni- 
ties to  play  the  game  more  nearly  as  it  is  generally  played. 
One  of  the  most  important  additions  to  the  athletic  equipment 
is  the  erection  of  the  artificial  ice  rink  by  the  Centerfreeze  Ice 
Company,  which,  while  not  belonging  to  the  University,  assures 
the  hockey  team  ice  for  practice  throughout  the  winter, 
without  making  them  dependent  upon  the  favors  of  the  New 
England  climate,  which,  as  Mark  Twain  said,  "comes  only  in 
samples." 

All  these  additions  have  taken  place  while  the  Class  of 
1914  has  been  in  College.  Surely  they  presage  a  day  when 
Yale  teams,  with  the  aid  of  proper  facilities,  will  again  attain 
their  position  of  unchallenged  supremacy,  and,  better  yet,  when 
athletics  will  no  longer  be  confined  to  those  who  need  them

ATHLETICS 

least,  but  when  everyone  will  take  part — when  physical  per- 
fection will  be  so  common  that  the  gods  on  Olympus  will  sigh 
with  envy. 

Yale's  marvelous  success  in  the  past,  however,  has  been  due 
to  far  more  than  coaches  and  equipment.  Is  the  vital  force 
which  used  to  dominate  the  same  today?  No  one  of  us  will 
ever  believe  that  the  old  Yale  spirit  has  changed  a  particle. 
In  Freshman  year  we  saw  Captain  Daly's  team  fight  its  way 
from  a  22-0  defeat  at  the  hands  of  Brown  to  a  victory  over 
Princeton  in  one  short  week,  swept  along  by  its  own  determina- 
tion and  by  the  irresistible  confidence  and  enthusiasm  of  the 
University  as  a  whole.  In  Senior  year  we  saw  another  wave  of 
a  similar  spirit  sweep  like  wildfire  over  the  University  after  the 
defeat  by  Colgate,  and  we  saw  Henry  Ketcham's  team  do  what 
the  papers  predicted  as  impossible — outplay  Princeton  at  every 
point,  even  though  the  score  was  an  unsatisfactory  tie.  No 
one  who  has  seen  Ketch  come  off  the  field,  having  given  every 
ounce  of  his  strength  to  the  fight ;  who  has  seen  Jack  Blossom 
rally  his  men  and  pull  out  a  victory  in  one  of  the  inevitable 
extra  inning  games ;  who  saw  Bill  Lippincott's  fight  to  the  finish 
when  he  should  have  been  in  the  hospital ;  who  saw  Doc  Cornish 
rise  with  a  shattered  j  aw  and  plunge  again  into  the  game ;  who 
has  known  any  of  the  men  on  these  teams,  which,  though 
defeated,  have  given  all  that  they  had  in  them  of  strength  and 
of  courage  to  give — no  one  who  has  seen  these  things,  as  our 
class  has  seen  them,  can  believe  that  the  Yale  spirit  today  is 
anything  different  from  the  old  spirit  which  was  once  crowned 
with  success.  And  so  long  as  that  remains  the  same  there-  will 
be  anxious  days  at  Cambridge  and  sleepless  nights  at  Prince- 
ton. Yale  may  have  temporary  setbacks  and  reverses,  but 
these  cannot  continue.  The  Class  of  1914  leaves  with  the 
utmost  confidence  that  the  period  of  transition  is  over,  and 
that  Yale  is  about  to  resume  her  rightful  position  at  the  head, 
where  she  will  sweep  all  before  her  like  chaff  before  the  wind.

P  REDERICK     LORING 

GROSS,  "Fred,"  was  born 
at  Brockton,  Mass.,  on  April  1, 
1892.  He  was  the  son  of 
Frederick  Johnson  Gross,  and 
May  Glendon  Gross,  who  died 
March  14,  1902.  Mr.  Gross 
was  born  at  Keyport,  N.  J.,  on 
January  17,  1867,  and  has 
spent  most  of  his  life  in  Brock- 
ton, Mass.,  and  Auburn,  Maine. 
He  is  engaged  in  shoe  manufac- 
turing, and  is  at  present  Treas- 
urer of  Field  Brothers  & 
Gross  Company.  There  are  two 
other  children,  both  daughters. 

Fred  prepared  for  College  at 
Quincy  High  School  and  Exeter  Academy. 

In  his  short  career  at  College,  he  had  already  taken  a  promi- 
nent part  in  the  activities  of  the  Class;  he  heeled  the  News  in 
the  first  competition  and,  failing  in  that,  he  started  out  in 
the  second.  He  was  unable  to  continue,  however,  owing  to 
illness,  and  eventually  had  to  retire  from  College  on  this  account. 
He  was  taken  to  his  home  in  Auburn,  Maine,  where  he  died  on 
May  3,  1911.  In  a  career  cut  off  so  early,  Fred  had  already 
given  much  promise  of  a  splendid  future  and  it  was  one  of  the 
greatest  misfortunes  the  Class  has  encountered  to  have  lost 
him.  Quiet,  good-natured,  lovable,  he  will  always  be  remem- 
bered with  the  deepest  affection  by  his  many  friends.

Street.  He  was  one  of  the  first 
men  of  the  Class  to  win  his 
numerals,  getting  them  in  the 
Fall  Track  Meet.  In  Sopho- 
more year  he  roomed  with  Allen 
Evans,  Jr.,  and  Wm.  Jay 
Schieffelin,  Jr.,  in  Durfee.  He 
became  a  member  of  the  Alpha 
Delta  Phi  Fraternity.  On 
April  8,  1912,  during  the 
Easter  vacation,  he  was  killed 
in  an  automobile  accident,  to- 
gether with  his  friend  and  class- 
mate, Arthur  Larned  Ryerson. 
One  cannot  but  feel  that  his 
life  was  cut  short  in  the  full 
promise  and  strength  of  his 
youth.  Those  who  best  knew 

him  and  the  sorrow  of  wrhich  he  had  had  more  than  his  share 
in  so  few  years,  could  not  but  admire  his  fortitude  under  it. 
It  was  due  to  this  that  Lewis  was,  perhaps,  more  reserved  and 
harder  to  know  than  the  average  boy  who  comes  to  College.  He 
did  not  let  this  interfere  with  his  life,  however,  and  soon  had 
around  him  a  circle  of  the  warmest  friends.  His  friends  felt 
the  strength  of  his  character  and  the  growing  powers  of  his 
life.  His  usual  good  spirits  and  undauntedness,  with  an  under- 
Current  of  seriousness,  endeared  him  to  us  all,  while  his  inher- 
ited gentlemanliness  and  breeding  won  the  respect  and  admira- 
tion of  his  classmates. 

His  death  came  to  us,  his  classmates,  as  an  overwhelming 
shock.  His  life,  as  we  knew  it,  has  left  an  impression  of  pure 
manliness  and  courage  on  our  lives  which  we  can  never  forget.

ARTHUR  LARNED  RYERSON 


[393] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Owing  to  the  shortness  of  his  College  career,  those  who  knew 
him  best  feel  that  Arthur  did  not  have  time  to  develop  fully. 
Occasionally  men  come  to  College  whose  characters  do  not 
expand  so  rapidly  as  the  average,  and  who,  for  this  reason, 
fail  of  universal  appreciation  by  their  classmates  until  their 
third  or  fourth  years.  To  this  type  Arthur  belonged,  but 
nevertheless  he  had  gathered  about  himself  an  ever-increasing 
circle  of  friends.  We  who  knew  him  thus  intimately  will  always 
remember  his  light-hearted  buoyancy  of  spirit,  his  innate 
gentlemanliness,  his  originality  and  freedom  of  thought,  and 
his  generosity  of  feeling  and  consideration  for  others.  His 
attitude  of  kindliness  towards  his  fellows  was  perhaps  his  most 
endearing  quality,  and  it  was  this  which,  during  the  few 
moments  of  consciousness  after  the  accident  which  -resulted  in 
his  death,  prompted  him,  although  suffering  intensely,  to  urge 
those  with  him  "to  go  to  Hoffman,  as  he  was  the  most  hurt." 
To  us,  his  classmates,  his  death  was  a  cause  of  deep  sorrow,  and 
sincere  regret  that  a  life  so  promising  and  full  of  hope  should 
come  to  so  untimely  an  end.

MISCELLANY 


THE  OLD  AND 


THE  NEW 


MORY'S 

Hallowed  in  the  memories  and  affections  of  many  genera- 
tions of  Yale  men,  Mory's  stands  today  as  one  of  the  few 
institutions  of  College  life  in  New  Haven  which,  within  the  past 
six  decades,  has  not  been  completely  metamorphosed.  Despite 
three  changes  in  location,  from  Wooster  Street  to  Court,  to 
Temple,  and  finally  to  York  Street,  the  same  atmosphere  per- 
vades the  identical  surroundings  which  have  caused  it  to  be 
for  over  half  a  century  the  favorite  Yale  gathering  place. 

The  original  Mory's  was  discovered  quite  by  accident. 
Frank  Moriarity  and  his  wife  kept  an  ale  house  in  a  dingy 
little  place  on  Wooster  Street,  the  resort  of  the  young  mechan- 
ics of  the  neighborhood,  who  appreciated  the  dignified  hospi- 
tality of  "Frank,"  a  happy  contrast  to  the  various  saloon- 
keepers of  the  district.  Through  Wooster  Street  many  of  the 
students  had  passed  on  their  way  to  the  old  boathouse  of  the 
time,  but  none  had  ever  happened  to  stop  at  this  unpretentious 
and  not  particularly  inviting  house.  At  last,  upon  the  after- 
noon of  a  regatta  in  the  harbor,  a  group  of  students,  mem- 
bers of  the  Class  of  1863,  desiring  stimulant  to  restore  their 
depleted  energies,  visited  the  modest  tap  room.  This  was  the 
discovery  of  Mory's.  Cheered  by  the  hospitality  of  the  bluff 
and  hearty  Frank,  these  students  repeated  their  visits,  and 
gradually  the  place  came  to  be  used,  at  first,  it  is  true,  chiefly 
by  crew  men,  but  soon  by  the  whole  student  body. 

Encouraged  by  this  quickly  acquired  popularity  with  the 
students,  Frank  moved  to  a  place  on  Court  Street,  near  the 
Green,  which  soon  gained  the  name  of  "The  Quiet  House." 
Here  students  gathered  nightly  "to  mingle  their  voices  in 
rollicking  song,  or  to  indulge  in  those  characteristic  engage- 
ments in  which  the  repartee  was  always  clean,  if  not  witty." 
Upon  the  death  of  Frank,  in  the  late  seventies,  Mrs.  Moriarity,

or  "the  Widow,"  as  she  soon  came  to  be  called,  transferred  her 
good  will  and  her  business  to  a  white  frame  building  on  the 
corner  of  Temple  and  Center  Streets,  where  she  installed  her- 
self as  the  Mistress  of  "Temple  Bar" — in  which  building 
Mory's  remained  until  the  summer  of  1912. 

"The  Quiet  House"  is  probably  best  described  in  the  words 
of  Col.  Norris  G.  Osborn,  '80 : 

"What  a  revelation  was  'The  Quiet  House'  to  the  student 
world !  Appropriately  named  and  appropriately  located,  set 
back  the  conventional  fifty  feet  from  the  pavements,  the  swing- 
ing doors  of  brown  leather,  uniformly  darkened  with  the  stains 
and  dirt  of  years,  its  inner  door  of  imitation  English  oak — 
how  pleasant  the  atmosphere  of  sombre  color,  the  characteristic 
old  prints,  the  odor  of  real  English  ale,  and  the  very  breath  and 
breathings  of  good  fellowship  that  greeted  one  upon  one's 


ONE  OF  THE  TABLES

entrance !  There  were  none  of  the  sad  trappings  of  the  saloon. 
There  were  the  conventional  quiet  and  order  and  decency  of 
the  English  grill  room.  About  the  rough-hewn  old  tables  were 
grouped  young  and  handsome  boys,  some  in  earnest,  some  in 
flippant  conversation,  with  here  one  pouring  patiently  over  the 
latest  copy  of  Punch,  there  one,  evidently  a  Sophomore,  making 
his  first  visit  and  wonderingly  turning  the  pages  of  an  obsolete 
London  directory.  Occasionally  a  peal  of  rippling  laughter 
would  ring  through  the  room  and  startle  the  quieter  visitors, 
to  die  away  later  in  the  evening  in  the  semi-martial  melody  of 
Delta  Beta  Xi — a  signal  to  all  that  conversation  must  give 
away  to  the  government  of  song." 

Upon  the  death  of  Mrs.  Moriarity,  Temple  Bar  was  rented 
by  "Eddie"  Oakley,  who  for  a  number  of  years  had  acted  as 
Mrs.  Moriarity's  manager.  Eddie,  however,  proved  unequal 
to  the  traditions  of  the  place  in  certain  ways,  and  Mory's 
was  forced  to  put  up  the  shutters  through  lack  of  business. 

But  in  1898  began  the  reign  of  Louis  Linder,  soon  to  become 
one  of  the  most  famous  of  Yale  characters.  Born  in  Oehringen, 
Germany,  he  had,  at  the  age  of  fourteen,  run  away  to  America, 
sailing  as  a  cabin  boy,  and  for  several  years  worked  in  the 
hotels  of  New  York.  There  he  attracted  the  attention  of  one 
of  the  Heubleins,  who  brought  him  to  New  Haven  when  the 
place  at  the  corner  of  Church  and  Court  streets  was  opened, 
some  twenty-two  years  ago.  When  Mory's  had  stood  idle  for 
about  a  year,  Mr.  Linder  decided  to  reopen  it.  He  put  all  his 
savings  into  the  venture.  For  the  first  year  or  so  he  had  a 
hard  struggle;  but  soon  undergraduates  realized  that  here 
was  a  place  which  was  conducted  on  straight  principles,  and 
where  they  could  meet  by  themselves  amidst  truly  homelike  and 
wholesome  surroundings.  Soon  it  won  among  undergraduates 
a  great  popularity  which  it  has  never  since  lost.  This  popu- 
larity was  well  shown  when  three  years  ago  there  was  some 
falling  off  in  the  interest  and  attendance  and  Mr.  Linder 
decided  to  close  the  place  up.  Objections  came  from  gradu- 
ates all  over  the  world  by  letter,  telegram,  cable  and  newspaper

articles.  Committees  got  to  work,  and  as  a  result  Mory's  was 
saved  and  arrangements  made  for  its  perpetuation  as  a  Yale 
institution. 

In  the  summer  of  1912,  Mory's  was  forced  to  move  from  its 
old  location,  at  the  corner  of  Temple  and  Center,  as  the  orig- 
inal building  had  been  torn  down  to  make  room  for  the  new 
Journal-Courier  building.  The  Linder  Realty  Company,  of 
which  Mr.  Linder  was  president  and  C.  G.  Spalding  secretary, 
purchased  a  new  establishment  at  306  York  Street.  At  the 
same  time  there  was  formed  the  Mory's  Association  Incorpor- 
ated, the  officers  being  James  O.  Rodgers,  '98,  president; 
George  Goss,  1903,  vice  president;  Franklin  Farrell,  1903, 
treasurer;  and  Carroll  C.  Hincks,  1911,  secretary,  which  under- 
took the  formal  management  of  Mory's  as  a  club,  with  Mr. 
Linder  as  its  steward.  Both  this  Association  and  the  Linder 
Realty  Company  were  formed  at  the  express  wish  of  Mr.  Linder 
to  provide  a  sure  way  for  the  continuance  of  Mory's  in  case

of  his  death,  and  that  it  should  fall  into  no  other  than  Yale 
hands. 

The  interior  of  the  new  establishment  was  appointed  so  as  to 
correspond  as  nearly  as  possible  to  the  old  house.  All  the  old 
fittings  and  furnishings  were  retained  by  the  owners  of  the 
new  club  and  have  been  placed  in  positions  corresponding  as 
nearly  as  possible  to  those  occupied  at  the  old  place.  The 
little  old  lady  and  gentleman  still  lean  forth  from  their  windows

over  the  doorways,  in  the  center  of  the  front  room  is  the  round 
table  carved  with  the  initials  of  the  members  of  the  Senior 
Class,  and  along  the  sides  of  the  room  are  the  same  oblong 
tables  with  the  same  chairs  Not  only  are  the  tables  and  chairs 
the  same,  but  also  the  furnishings,  the  clocks,  mantels,  windows 
and  window  frames,  pictures,  trophies,  tobies  and  tankards. 
That  the  removal  to  the  new  place  would  be  marked  by  so  few 
changes  was  remarked  with  wonder. 

On  Sunday  morning,  October  19,  1913,  Louis  Linder  died, 
after  a  faithful  service  of  fifteen  consecutive  years  as  proprie-

tor  and  later  steward  of  Mory's.  During  this  time  he  had 
become  known  to  Yale  men  all  over  the  world  as  a  man  unique  for 
rugged  honesty  and  grave  kindness.  Because  of  his  continued 
ill  health  and  his  frequent  and  extended  absence  from  New 
Haven  during  the  past  three  years,  it  was  not  the  privilege  of 
many  members  of  1914  to  know  Louis  very  intimately.  But 
to  those  of  us  who  did  know  him,  the  memories  of  his  friendship 
will  long  be  cherished. 

Upon  the  death  of  Mr.  Linder,  the  Board  of  Governors 
appointed  William  T.  Krueger,  familiarly  known  as  "Bill,"  to 
succeed  as  steward,  after  many  years'  service  in  the  capacity  of 
Mr.  Linder's  able  lieutenant,  where  he  had  won  the  affection  of 
graduate  and  undergraduate  alike.  To  "Bill,"  renowned  for 
his  courteous  hospitality  and  good  nature,  the  good  friend  of 
1914  since  the  first  of  Sophomore  year,  the  Class  wishes  a  long 
life  and  continued  success  in  his  management  of  Mory's.

FENCE  ORATIONS 

Acceptance  of  the  Fence,  in  behalf  of  the  Freshman  Class, 
by  Almet  Jenks,  in  reply  to  F.  V.  Blood,  1913.  Delivered  on 
the  Campus,  Monday,  June  12,  1911. 

ORATION  OF  A.  F.  JENKS,  JR. 

Young  Gentlemen  of  the  Sophomore  Class: 

It  is  my  pleasure  to  thank  you  collectively  for  this  gift  and 
my  sorrow  to  vituperate  you  individually  for  a  donation  so 
soon  to  become  the  "seats  of  the  mighty."  I  understand  it 
has  been  hard  for  you  to  yield  it,  not  wholly  because  of  the 
difficulty  of  the  Sophomore  exams, — a  matter  beyond  your 
control, — but  partly  for  the  sentiment,  that  does  you  credit. 
Of  ourselves  I  have  little  to  say ;  "on  their  own  merits  modest 
men  are  dumb."  Our  gratefulness  is  not  easy  to  express.  It 
is  illustrated  by  a  story  of  the  New  Haven  Fire  Department. 
One  of  its  firemen,  Jackson,  had  done  a  brave  deed — climbed 
five  stories  through  red  flames  and  aching  smoke,  rescued  a 
baby  and  thrown  it  out  of  a  window  into  a  life-net ;  incidentally 
Jackson  came  down  by  the  passenger  elevator.  His  comrades, 
wishing  to  express  their  admiration,  subscribed  to  give  him  a 
magnificent  silver  trumpet.  The  chief  arose  to  present  it: 

"Mr.  Jackson,"  he  said,  "we — that  is,  the  boys  and  me, 
here, — can  neve r-er- fully  express  er — can  never  fully  express- 
er — Oh,  here!  Take  the  damn  trumpet!" 

Jackson  arose  to  receive  the  gift.  "Gentlemen,"  he  said, — 
"er-and  fellow  firemen,"  the  tears  were  rolling  down  his  fire- 
cracked  cheeks,  "such-er-brotherly  love  touches  me-er-to  the 
quick — er-I — for  my  part-er-I — Oh,  hell,  give  me  the  trum- 
pet !" 

Before  my  slander  sortie  let  me  say  that  we  shall  take  this 
Fence  as  a  tradition,  not  as  a  trophy.  It  has  left  its  mark 

[4041 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

upon  all  Yale  men  and  not  one  of  them  was  so  callous  as  not 
to  receive  and  retain  its  impression.  This  is  a  kindergarten 
example  of  the  application  of  the  logical  principle  of  "a 
posteriori."  And  it  is  a  living  institution,  not  a  back  number, 
though  a  back  number.  And  yet  I  believe  every  Yale  man  is 
glad  that  he  was  not  a  cherub  and  therefore  incapable  of 
feeling  its  influence  upon  his  physical,  if  not  his  intellectual 
life.  Time  was  when  the  Fence  was  the  boundary  that  sepa- 
rated the  classic  confines  of  the  Campus  from  the  turmoil  of 
the  town  and  when  Yale  men  manned  the  rails  as  a  living 
buttress  against  what  one  sweet  girl  graduate  once  termed 
the  "oi  populi." 

Later,  it  became  a  priceless  relic  within  our  walls,  but  none 
the  less,  it  has  remained  unchanged  as  the  survival  of  the 
simplicity  of  the  antique,  as  the  counter-irritant  to  cozy 
corners  and  air  cushions,  as  the  Spartan  seat  of  Yale  democ- 
racy. It  is,  then,  a  station,  a  status,  a  symbol  and  a  shrine, 
and,  I  am  told,  that  as  the  Moslem  kneels  in  prayer  at  the 
sight  of  Mecca,  the  oldest  living  graduate  always,  at  the 
sight  of  it,  breaks  into  a  rheumatic  run  to  balance  himself 
once  again  upon  its  topmost  rail  as  if  he  had  found  the  fountain 
of  perpetual  youth. 

But  I  am  told  that  I  must  be  personal,  that  a  Fence  Oration 
is  an  expurgated  edition  of  "Who's  Who  in  America,"  or 
rather,  Who's  Who  in  the  Sophomore  Class,  which,  however, 
is  practically  the  same  thing,  at  least,  in  their  own  eyes.  I 
must  speak  to  you  as  you  are,  nothing  extenuate,  nor  set  down 
aught  in  malice  except  that  on  such  and  such  an  occasion  the 
purist  in  the  Sophomore  Class  must  be  described  as  a  ruffian 
of  the  deepest  dye.  And  although  I  speak  of  you,  it  cannot 
be  said  of  me,  in  the  words  of  the  poet : 

"Everyone  knows  that  a  man  represents 
Not  the  fellers  that  sent  him,  but  them  on  the  fence." 

Well,  then,  in  the  first  place,  they  tell  me  you  are  giving 
away  this  here  Fence  because  you  have  never  been  able  to  use

it.  If  you  will  examine  the  moving  pictures  of  the  worthies 
squatting  toad-like  upon  this  historic  bit  of  furniture,  you 
will  realize  that  to  poise  gracefully  on  the  top  rail  and  hook 
one's  foot  delicately  around  the  bottom  has  demanded  a 
vast  amount  of  sobriety.  Although  I  dislike  to  so  much  as 
touch  upon  the  subject  of  Bacchanalian  orgies  and  the  like, 
this  is,  nevertheless,  only  too  true.  Why,  the  preceding 
speaker  himself  told  me  that  when  the  time  came  for  presenta- 
tion "he  guessed  he'd  have  to  rely  on  old  King  Alcohol." 
Merely  out  of  justice,  however,  after  listening  to  his  clear, 
untainted  speech  rising  on  the  Spring-like  air  like  a  benediction, 
we  realize  that,  on  the  contrary,  he  must  have  relied  on  the 
ancient  precept,  "Put  not  your  trust  in  princes." 

Although  we  have  not  had  the  pleasure  of  knowing  you  "en 
masse,9'  so  to  speak,  a  few  of  your  members  have  become  known 
to  us  through  their  kindly  solicitude.  Two  friends  there 
are, — "sturdy  and  staunch  they  stand":  Academic  Kliger- 
man  and  Charlie  B.,  "the  Freshman's  friend" — always  on  York 
Street.  Charlie  cannot  tear  himself  away  from  old  surround- 
ings— any  day  you  can  see  him  struggling  with  Harty's  eggs, 
his  Italian  countenance  and  immaculate  dress  shedding  an  awe- 
inspiring  glamour  about  the  small  restaurant.  He  is  a  true 
gentleman  of  the  old  school — strong  in  his  convictions — for 
I  noticed  that  his  final  oration  in  Prep,  school  was  on  the 
subject  of  "Prohibition."  .... 

But  Obscurity  has  taken  flight.  Fame  is  now  knocking  at 
his  door  and  they  tell  me  a  bronze  plate,  similar  to  Nathan 
Hale's,  only  larger,  is  to  be  fastened  on  Welch  with  the  legend  : 
"Holladay  P.  roomed  here,  Sophomore  year,  1913."  But  even 
this  is  not  up  to  Walter  C.'s  famous  remark.  At  one  of  the 
few  social  events  that  Walter  is  seen  at,  some  one  introduced 
him  to  a  young  lady.  "I  am  very  pleased  to  meet  you,"  she 
murmured.  "Oh,  are  you  any  relative  to  Walter  Camp,  the 
great  football—" 

"Any  relative !"  laughed  Walter,  easily ;  "why,  my  dear  girl, 
I  am  the  great  Walter  Camp!"

HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Jack  A.,  they  tell  me,  is  noted  for  a  certain  near-vacancy  of 
genius  in  the  classroom.  For  instance,  he  was  once  required 
to  write  upon  the  subject,  "Rape  of  the  Sabines,"  and,  in 
effect,  this  was  his  answer:  "Rape  was  queen  of  the  Sabines. 
She  made  war  upon  Tarantula  but  later  married  him."  .... 
Among  the  few  things  that  have  been  given  us  this  year — 
I  might  say  the  only  things  besides  the  Fence,  was  a  member- 
ship in  the  Corinthian  Yacht  Club — and  even  that,  if  I  remem- 
ber correctly,  demanded  some  return.  Who  can  forget  the 
thrill  of  pride  that  permeated  his  being  when  he  learned  that 
his  name  had  been  "proposed  for  membership"?  Some  of 
us  were  rather  disappointed  in  the  club.  We  discovered  that 
it  was  more  "booze"  than  "cruise."  An  amusing  anecdote  is 
related  of  Albert  K.  and  his  first  yacht.  It  was  the  beginning 
of  his  nautical  career  and  the  wind  had  lashed  the  sea  into  a 
seething  mass.  The  "crew"  in  the  cabin  were  telling  him 
horrible  tales  of  shipwreck  and  hurricane.  Suddenly  a  sailor 
outside  dropped  a  heavy  block  upon  the  deck. 
"What  was  that?"  he  cried,  white  to  the  lips. 
"The  barometer  falling,"  whispered  someone. 

"God  help  us !"  he  moaned,  and  staggered  to  his  bunk 

In  the  transition  from  Prep,  school  to  college  many  marvel- 
ous changes  come,  but  none  so  great  as  that  in  the  character 
of  Eliot  C.  T.,  sometime  known  as  Zip.  .  .  .  .  I  believe  he 
was  once  seen  at  a  ball  dressed  as  a  Columbine.  In  his 
hurry  to  get  to  the  dance,  he  had  forgotten  to  wear  gloves. 
In  the  course  of  the  evening,  when  dancing  with  a  dainty 
Pierouette  in  white  satin,  who,  being  of  a  practical  turn  of 
mind,  and  by  no  means  content  to  forget  earth  and  all  its 
sorrows  to  the  intricate  steps  of  Zip's  "Boston,"  the  only 
living  rival  of  jiu-jitsu,  had  visions  of  the  immense  imprint 
of  Zip's  hand  upon  the  middle  of  her  back.  So  she  stopped 
the  dance  and  said  in  her  most  dulcet  tones : 

"Mr.  Thompson,  would-er-you  mind  using  your  handker- 
chief?" 

"Why,   c-certainly   n-not,"    says    Zip,   who   draws    out    his 

[408]

handkerchief  and  blows  his  nose  with  a  blast  that  drowns  the 
orchestra,  including  the  trombone  soloist. 

Another  famous  entertainer  is  Cole  P.  He  has  taken  the 
college  world  and  several  large  western  towns  by  storm  with 
his  clever  songs,  rare  old  wines  and  peculiar  salads.  We  all 
feared  for  him  once  when,  due  to  Beebian  efforts  to  sing  "Per- 
fectly Terribly"  to  some  admiring  damsel,  he  strained  a  tendon 
and  got  appendicitis.  But  he  was  well  cared  for ;  could  any 
harm  come  to  the  "1911  Class  Baby"?  .... 

We  come  now  to  a  lamentable  status,  to  a  few  who  are 
revelling  in  their  second  childhood, — the  1913  kindergarten: 
Billy  Wolv— W.  "Squab"  R.  and  "Benny"  B.  The  latter 
youth  was  found  one  Sunday  afternoon  with  a  small  rubber 
ball  and  elastic  which  he  had  attached  to  the  corner  of  Connec- 
ticut Hall.  He  was  having  a  wonderful  time  walking  to 
Welch,  letting  go  the  ball  and  watching  it  bounce.  Quite  a 
crowd  of  children  collected  and  Benny  amused  the  little  ones 
all  afternoon.  To  the  pure,  all  things  are  puerile.  But  this 
is  no  worse  than  Ambrose  C. — notice  the  transition — who  has 
invested  in  a  canary  bird,  a  bass-drum,  an  accordion  and  a 
laundry  ringer.  Together  with  Johnfritz's  kitten  they  have 
a  fairly  decent  nursery 

I  feel,  at  this  point,  something  like  the  little  girl  at  the 
party.  You  perhaps  remember  the  story.  At  a  large  party 
of  very  little  girls  and  boys  a  kindly,  benevolent  old  lady 
found  one  child  seated  against  the  wall,  her  youthful  brow 
creased  in  a  terrible  frown.  "Why,  why — what's  the  matter, 
little  girl,  don't  you  like  our  party?" 

"Huh!"  answered  the  sweet  little  thing,  "I  wish  I  wuz  to 
home  and  the  party  wuz  to  hell !" 

I  am  at  a  loss  to  know  whether  I  have  deeply  injured  some 
worthy  gentlemen  by  vile  calumnies  or  have  failed  to  retaliate 
for  the  insults  we  have  received, — torn,  as  it  were,  between  a 
spirit  of  regret  and  patriotism — perhaps  a  wrong  patriotism, 
but  nevertheless  a  certain  sort  of  love  that  seeks  to  defend  by 

[409]

returning  insult  for  injury.  Patriotism  has  been  often  mis- 
interpreted. 

But  I  imagine  that  some  of  our  youthful  follies  could  not 
have  remained  long  concealed.  After  all  "Blood  will  tell." 
And  if  we  have  been  too  violent,  we  may  adopt  a  more  harmless 
strain  and  remind  you  that  in  very  truth  the  Fence  is  a  great 
deal  like  the  Freshman,  it  exists  only  to  be  sat  on. 

So  finally,  gentlemen,  to  drop  into  a  bit  of  verse: 

Here  have  our  fathers  often  sat  before  us 
And  sang  their  songs  unto  the  fickle  moon, 
All  joining  in  the  lilt  of  flowing  chorus. 
While  twisted  in  the  shape  of  Laocoon. 

Here  have  they  fought  again  these  fields  of  glory, 
Where  Yale  aloft  the  palm  of  vict'ry  bore, 
Or  told  once  more,  the  time-worn  college  story, 
And  mused  upon  the  spirits  gone  before. 

And  shall  we  not  then  find  an  inspiration, 
When  we  shall  gather  on  the  battered  rail, 
And  feel  the  spirit  of  an  aspiration — 
When  we,  no  longer,  are  "without  the  pale." 

In  behalf  of  the  Class  of  1914,  for  this  Fence,  I  thank  you, 
gentlemen. 


Presentation  of  the  Fence  in  Sophomore  year,  Stoddard 
King  representing  1914.  Accepted  by  John  S.  Reilly  of  the 
Freshman  Class.  June  6,  1912. 

ORATION  OF  S.  KING. 

My  Dear  Young  Friends  of  the  Freshman  Class: 

I  asked  you  to  come  here  this  afternoon  to  make  you  a 
present  of  a  weather-beaten  but  useful  piece  of  Campus  furni- 
ture. Of  course,  as  a  matter  of  fact,  this  piece  of  furniture  is 
in  the  same  class  with  the  little  mucker's  black  eye — nobody 
gave  it  to  you;  you  had  to  fight  for  it.  But  fighting,  as  we 
all  know,  is  rude  and  coarse,  and  it  looks  much  nicer  to  have 

[411] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

a  presentation  than  to  degrade  this  noble  ceremony  into  a 
mere  case  of  disorderly  conduct. 

The  Sophomore  Class  is  very  glad  to  turn  this  bit  of  wood- 
work over  to  you  because  we  have  no  further  use  for  it  our- 
selves. This  is  called  magnanimity.  Henceforth  you  are  to 
be  at  liberty  to  twine  yourselves  sinuously  about  the  upper 
and  lower  rails,  and  to  carve  your  initials  upon  these  bars 
rather  than  on  other  bars,  not  so  dry,  which  I  am  told  exist 
along  portions  of  New  Haven's  Great  Night  Way.  I  may 
call  this  the  awakening  of  the  child  to  manhood,  or  the  burst- 
ing of  the  beautiful  butterfly  from  the  crude  chrysalis.  I 
think  it  is  a  lovely  idea.  Little  child — sturdy  man.  Dirty 
gray  cocoon — pretty  pink  butterfly.  Beautiful. 

Of  course,  there  are  always  two  sides  to  an  affair  like  this — 
a  cheerful  side  and  a  sad  side.  The  cheerful  feature  lies  in 
the  fact  that  you  are  getting  something  for  nothing — another 
Yale  tradition  shattered.  The  element  of  sadness  creeps  into 
the  occasion  only  when  it  is  recalled  that  after  listening  to  a 
scholarly  and  scintillating  presentation  speech  you  are  forced 
to  sit  through  a  tedious  acceptance  by  a  member  of  your  own 
Class,  who  slanders  us  in  return  for  our  generosity,  and  whose 
bump  of  reverence  is  smaller  than  the  cherry  in  his  favorite 
beverage.  When  I  am  through  with  this  small  sermon  I  can 
give  you  my  blessing  and  depart.  You  have  to  stay.  I 
sympathize  with  you. 

How  do  I  know  the  acceptance  will  be  tedious?  Because  it 
is  a  tendency  of  your  class  to  take  as  much  time  as  possible 
to  complete  even  a  comparatively  simple  task.  Let  me  illus- 
trate. On  the  occasion  of  the  President's  tea,  two  of  your 
members  reached  the  executive  residence  frightfully  early. 
There  wasn't  another  soul  there.  These  two  Freshmen  were 
greeted  by  their  host  with  a  touch  of  surprise.  "Very  glad 
to  see  you,  I'm  sure,"  said  the  President.  "But  why,  may  I 
ask,  did  you  come  so  early?" 

"Well,  you  see,"  said  one  nonchalantly,  to  show  his  perfect 
familiarity  with  social  usages,  "it  said  on  the  invitations :  'From 

[412]

four  to  six.'  Now,  we've  got  to  leave  at  a  quarter  to  six,  so 
we  came  at  a  quarter  to  four." 

Just  as  I  started  to  mount  this  rostrum  I  heard  the  clapping 
of  hands  and  was  much  gratified.  "Why,"  I  said  to  my  col- 
league, "I  seem  to  be  getting  quite  a  reception.  They're 
applauding  me  already." 

"Aw,  shucks,"  said  he  with  very  evident  jealousy,  "they 
ain't  applauding,  they're  slapping  mosquitoes."  So  with  the 
mosquitoes  in  mind,  I  shall  not  keep  you  long.  Just  long 
enough  to  touch  up  a  few  of  the  highlights  of  your  Class.  And 
there  aren't  very  many  of  those,  either.  Your  Class  has  as 
few  highlights  as  it  has  highbrows.  I  can't  put  it  any  stronger. 
When  I  started  to  look  for  interesting  personalities  I  ran  up 
against  a  dull  gray  level  of  mediocrity  that  gave  me  pause. 
And  then,  to  make  matters  worse,  I  was  waited  on  by  a  tearful 
deputation  which  besought  me  for  the  sake  of  the  dear  ones  at 
home  not  to  say  anything  about  any  little  irrigation  projects 
they  may  have  taken  part  in.  And  I  had  a  perfectly 
lovely  story,  too,  about  the  1915  man  who  invented  the  Mary 
Garden  cocktail,  which  the  Class  took  to  like  the  Garland  babies 
to  a  dog  biscuit.  But  I  have  the  dope,  nevertheless,  and  will 
send  it  unexpurgated  to  anyone  who  will  forward  the  cost 
of  postage  and  packing.  I  think  that's  fair  enough. 

If  I  had  a  subject,  I  think  it  would  be  "The  Decline  and  Fall 
of  the  Class  of  1915."  But  understand,  please,  that  I  do  not 
speak  in  a  spirit  of  carping  criticism.  I  am  presenting  a 
fence,  but  it  is  not  my  post  to  rail  at  anyone.  (I  wanted  to 
work  in  a  joke  here  about  a  fence  presentation  being  a  bar 
tender,  but  I  don't  see  how  I  am  going  to.)  I  have  also  in 
mind  the  precept,  de  mortuis  nil  nisi  bonum,"  which  being 
interpreted  means :  "They're  a  lot  of  dead  ones — don't  roast 
them."  So  my  tone  throughout  is  to  be  apologetic  rather  than 
aggressive. 

.,  Gentlemen  of  1915,  you  have  had  glorious  opportunities. 
Yours  has  been  the  last  Class  to  enjoy  the  priceless  privilege 
of  the  sage  counsel  of  the  head  of  the  house  of  Garland —

perhaps  I  might  have  chosen  a  better  word  than  "priceless." 
You  have  had,  most  of  you,  a  Harty  diet — advertising  rates 
to  other  restaurants  on  application — together  with  the  inspira- 
tion afforded  by  the  fair  young — or  rather  fairly  young- — 
handmaids  of  der  alte  Eli.  You  have  had  more  News  editorials 
slung  at  you  than  any  other  Freshman  Class  in  the  history 
of  the  College.  And,  last  and  best,  you  have  had  Stover  for 
a  model. 

And  what  have  you  done  with  these  opportunities?  Oppor- 
tunity, we  are  told,  knocks  only  once  at  a  man's  door,  thereby 
differing  from  the  average  bill  collector.  You  have  had 
opportunities,  what  have  you  done  with  them?  Ah,  that  it  has 
been  my  business  to  find  out.  And  did  I  do  it?  To  quote  some 
of  the  most  noble  words  of  Aristotle,  I  done  it.  I  am  by  tem- 
perament and  profession  a  muckraker,  not  an  orator,  and  I 
sound  the  depths  of  society  with  as  much  embonpoint — I  mean 
nonchalance — I  never  get  the  right  English  on  those  French 
phrases — with  as  much  nonchalance  as  I  now  sound  the  dirge 
of  a  once  promising  Class.  Only  one  thing  did  I  find  to  your 
advantage.  You  really  have  made  an  effort  to  imitate  certain 
episodes  of  the  great  Stover's  career.  The  results  of  this  effort 
have  been  renewed  popularity  of  buggy  riding,  three  in  a  seat, 
and  greatly  increased  attendance  at  Hughey's. 

When  I  started  to  investigate  your  career,  my  modus 
operandi,  to  lapse  into  the  vulgar  idioms  of  the  Roman  race 
track,  was  this :  I  went  slumming.  Slumming  on  York  Street. 
Does  not  the  idea  evoke  a  sympathetic  shudder? 

When  Virgil  returned  to  the  Elysian  fields  after  a  lengthy 
absence,  his  celestial  roommate,  noting  a  faint  odor  of  brim- 
stone, asked  where  he  had  been,  and  the  poet  replied  in  a  neat 
hexameter :  "To  Hell  with  Dante,"  thereby  originating  a  senti- 
ment you  will  find  written  in  nine  out  of  ten  copies  of  "Heroes 
and  Hero- Worship."  But  when  I  plunged  into  the  shades  of 
York  Street,  beneath  the  frowning  Garland  portal  with  the 
inscription:  "All  dope  abandon,  ye  who  enter  here,"  I  had  no 
Latin  poet  for  a  guide.  A  Latin  poet  would  have  been  of  no 

[415] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

use  ait  all  to  me,  having  not  even  a  speaking  acquaintance  in  the 
whole  Freshman  Glass.  It  would  have,  been  like  taking  a  Gil- 
lette to  a  colored  picnic.  I  had  with  me,  however,  a  man  who 
knew  the  slums,  who  had  seen  the  seamy  side  of  life — one 
of  the  famous  white  hopes  of  Yale  Hope.  These  men,  be  it 
said  in  parentheses,  are  noted  for  their  powers  of  conversion, 
particularly  the  conversion  of  conversation  into  cash.  I  had 
this  man  with  me,  then.  It  was,  as  you  may  have  guessed,  our 
old  friend  Bud  Wiser — pure  malt  and  real  Bohemian  hops. 
Bud  wore  false  whiskers  so  as  not  to  be  recognized  by  any  of 
his  needy  but  seedy  proteges 

We  heard  low,  musical  murmurings  oozing  out  through  the 
keyhole  of  a  dimly  lighted  room.  We  entered  and  saw  Archie 
MacLeish,  the  only  line-bucking  poet  known  to  science,  in  the 
act  of  dashing  off  a  few  sentiments  for  the  advertising  pages 
of  the  Record.  He  was  surrounded  by  a  bust  of  Ella  Wheeler 
Wilcox  and  his  breath  smelled  of  lavender  lozenges.  Here  let 
me  tell  you  the  only  true  story  of  this  delightful  young  man's 
first  plunge  into  the  fountain  of  the  Muses.  He  went  to  the 
Lit.  office  one  day  and  entered  modestly  with  a  manuscript 
under  his  arm.  "I  have  a  little  madrigal  here,"  he  chirped 
prettily. 

"Got  you,"  gurgled  the  low-browed,  illiterate  person  who 
was  running  the  office  at  the  time. 

"It  is  about  moon  mist  and  the  soul  of  the  rose  and  all  that 
sort  of  thing,"  Archie  volunteered. 

"Is  that  all  you  got?"  said  the  brute  in  charge.  "We  ain't 
running  much  moon  mist  stuff  this  year.  Drinking  songs  is 
what  we  want.  There  was  a  lot  of  champagne  ads.  turned 
in  last  comp.  and  we  have  to  please  our  advertisers." 

"Why,  yes,"  said  Archie.  "I  have  a  little  thing  on  the 
Higher  Pantheism.  It  goes  like  this" — and  he  read: 

"Out  of  the  cosmos  of  eternity 
\   t.injrlrd  snmrthiiig  cornes  to  plague  my  soul, 
The  nights  an-  mid — I  know  not  what  they  be — 
And  litV  is  Imt  six-sevenths  of  the  whole."

By  this  time  the  Lit .  person  was  able  to  gasp :  "In  the  name 
of  Owen  Johnson,  give  us  the  moon  mist."  So  Archie  has  been 
writing  moon  mist  ever  since. 

Off  in  one  corner  of  the  room  was  a  cheerful,  chubby  little 
man  reading  a  time  table.  It  took  but  one  glance  to  assure 
me  that  it  was  Ran  Macdonald,  the  only  man  who  has  been 
able  to  heel  the  News  without  ever  actually  being  in  New 
Haven.  Mac  spent  one  or  two  nights  here  while  the  fall  com- 
petition was  at  its  height,  but  he  has  never  ceased  to  regard 
that  as  wasted  time.  He  used  to  bribe  the  other  heelers  with 
marbles  and  bits  of  colored  glass  to  cover  his  assignments  for 
him,  and  spent  the  fall  and  winter  traveling.  On  one  of  those 
rare  occasions  when  his  face  was  seen  in  the  News  office  one 
of  the  tyrants  in  charge  suggested  that  it  might  be  a  good 
thing  if  Mac  would  hand  in  a  few  logs.  A  log,  be  it  known,  is 
anything  too  weak  to  support  a  headline.  So  Mac  took  the 
New  York  papers  and  borrowed  a  fountain  pen  and  asked 
someone  where  the  heelers'  room  was.  After  an  hour  and  a 
half  of  mental  concentration  he  emerged  with  a  slip  of  paper 
on  which  was  neatly  written  the  following  scoop  of  scoops : 

"The  oldest  living  Princeton  graduate  is  dead."   .... 

The  guide  of  our  slumming  expedition  then  asked  us  if  we 
would  like  to  see  a  real  gambling  den.  We  said  yes,  after 
carefully  tucking  our  watches  and  other  valuables  into  our 
shoes.  So  he  led  us  mysteriously  to  a  door  from  behind  which 
we  could  hear  the  click  of  poker  chips  and  a  low  undertone 
of  quiet,  gentlemanly  curse  words.  The  intrepid  guide 
whistled  a  few  bars  of  "Auction  bridge  is  falling  down,"  and 
we  were  ushered  into  as  select  a  company  of  casino  sharks  as 
ever  disgraced  a  college  curriculum.  Marshmallow  cans  and 
ginger-beer  bottles  gave  the  room  an  appearance  of  unspeak- 
able rakishness.  Before  we  left  they  told  us  a  story  about  Win 
Brooks,  to  show  how  completely  he  is  absorbed  by  his  ruling 
passion  for  the  devil's  picture  cards.  One  night  Win  went  to 
pay  a  party  call.  He  was  a  bit  sleepy,  as  the  night  before  he 
had  sat  up  rather  late  to  call  on  a  couple  of  queens.  (He  lost,

by  the  way,  for  the  other  man  had  three  kings.)  At  any 
rate,  Win  dozed  off  while  the  young  lady  was  strumming  on 
the  piano.  Presently  she  turned  and  said,  "What  shall  I  play 
now?"  And  Win  replied  drowsily,  "I  don't  know.  Let's  see 
your  hand." 

It  is  pleasing  to  contrast  the  rude  disorderliness  of  some  of 
your  more  prominent  classmates  with  the  polished  social  graces 

of  such  men  as  Gardie  Osborn When  he  was  in  Boston 

with  the  Freshman  Glee  Club  he  had  a  dance  with  a  buxom 
Boston  belle,  beautiful,  blonde  and  bashful.  Gardie  bostoned 
with  her  in  his  usual  boisterous  manner,  and  asked  for  another 
dance. 

"Oh,  I  couldn't  dahnce  another,"  she  said.  "I'm  dahnced 
out." 

"Oh,  no,"  said  Gardie,  hastily,  "not  darned  stout — only  nice 
and  plump." 

As  a  specimen  of  the  degree  of  culture  that  exists  in  your 
Class,  I  need  only  mention  that  when  I  asked  a  very  intelligent- 
looking  youngster  if  there  were  any  dilettantes  in  1915,  he 
answered  naively:  "No,  but  there's  a  lot  of  pretty  pronounced 
blondes."  Imagine !  I  explained  that  a  dilettante  was  one  who 
trifled  with  things  literary  and  aesthetic,  sort  of  dabbled  his 
toes  in  the  Pierian  spring,  as  it  were,  and  he  told  me  about 
Bobby  Gamble.  Bobbie,  it  seems,  was  the  original  hero  of  the 
story  about  the  man  who  read  Scott's  Emulsion,  and  liked  it. 
His  neatest  base  hit  in  the  dilettante  line  was  scored  at  a  very 
lofty-browed  afternoon  affair,  where  conversational  gems  were 
washed  down  with  tea.  Bobby  and  a  highly  literary  young 
lady  who  wore  bifocal  eyeglasses  were  swapping  expressions  of 
ecstasy  over  literary  lights  of  the  past  and  present. 

"And  Carlyle,"  murmured  the  fair  one.    "Ah,  Carlyle !" 

Bobby  set  down  his  teacup,  after  extracting  the  cherry  with 
dexterous  thumb  and  forefinger,  and  took  on  a  far-away  look. 

"Carlyle,"  he  enunciated  ponderously,  "Carlyle  was  a  poet." 
After  that  Bobby  gave  up  the  dilettante  business  and  concen-

FENCE  ORATIONS 

trated  on  soccer,  which  is  football  with  a  good  deal  of  English 
on  it 

Now  there  are,  as  you  must  know,  as  many  traditions  clus- 
tering about  a  fence  presentation  as  there  are  about  the  dirt 
of  Durfee  and  the  fast  life  of  the  Divinity  School.  One  of 
these  is  that  a  Sophomore  oration  must  conclude  with  a  quinine 
capsule  of  good  advice  to  send  you  back  to  your  rooms  in  quiet, 
thoughtful  groups.  But  I  shall  not  presume  to  force  down 
your  throats  the  bitter  pap  of  patronizing  superiority.  You 
have  developed  the  true  Sophomore  swagger  that  we  hear  so 
much  about,  and  I  with  my  own  eyes  have  seen  at  least  a  dozen 
of  you  furtively  prowling  abroad  at  night  with  grim  black 
pipes  ornamenting  your  fair  young  faces.  You  have  learned  to 
appreciate,  for  instance,  an  intellectual  treat,  or  you  wouldn't 
be  here  this  evening. 

But  you  ought  to  appreciate  most  of  all  the  Fence.  You 
will  never  find  a  Fence  anywhere  else,  for  it  is  an  institution 
that  can  exist  only  at  Yale.  People  may  talk  as  much  as  they 
like,  and  write  as  many  letters  to  the  Alumni  Weekly  as  they 
like,  about  the  dying  out  of  the  old  Yale  spirit,  but  the  old  Yale 
spirit  cannot  possibly  die  out  as  long  as  the  Fence  stays. 
And  I  know  that  during  the  past  year,  at  least,  the  Fence  has 
been  just  what  it  was  meant  to  be — a  class  meeting  place. 
As  long  as  you  continue  to  make  it  a  meeting  place,  provided 
you  meet  often  enough,  you  won't  need  any  reforming,  social 
or  otherwise. 

So  here,  then,  is  my  peroration: 

The  Fence  we  give  you — keep  it  while  you  may — 

Joy  cannot  droop  or  loyal  spirit  fail, 
While  'round  its  battered  bars  at  close  of  day 

Gather  the  sturdy  sons  of  Mother  Yale: 
Through  the  apprenticeship  of  Freshman  year 

You  have  worked  hard,  but  there's  a  recompense — 
Take  our  best  wishes  with  it — now  and  here 

Let  me  present  you — Gentlemen,  the  Fence !

ALEXANDER  DOUGLAS,  CHAIRMAN  OF 

THE  1914  NEWS  BOARD 

THE  TATTERED  ARISTOCRACY 

The  type  of  decadent  gentleman  who  rides  under  a  Pullman 
is  quite  bewitching.  His  carefree  air,  his  patches  and  his 
nonchalance,  have  often  magnetized  the  pockets  of  even  the 
shrewdest  undergraduate.  He  never  seems  to  beg,  but  rather 
to  grant  a  favor  in  condescending  to  receive  a  gift.  Far  above 
the  common  drudge,  he  is,  indeed,  the  complete  aristocrat,  who 
roams  the  country,  seeking  crusty  pleasure  anywhere. 

The  undergraduate,  unused  to  "quality,"  is  greatly  at  a 
disadvantage  in  dealing  with  such  personages.  They  always 
accept  his  boons;  but  instead  of  appeasing  hunger  with  them, 
these  fallen  aristocrats — quench  their  thirst!  Of  this  neither 
the  Yale  Hope  Mission  nor  society  at  large  can  approve. 

If  the  undergraduate  must  bow  before  these  frayed  barons, 
he  can  either  give  them  tickets  for  profitable  entertainment  at 
the  Mission,  or  he  can  buy  them  a  harmless  dinner  at  a  lunch 
counter. 

THE  ANATOMY  OF  MELANCHOLY 

Wherever  two  or  three  moderns  are  gathered  together,  there 
is  usually  enough  depression  to  satisfy  Tragedy  itself.  Dismal 
wails  and  moans  reverberate  through  Yale's  entries  so  fre- 
quently that  a  stranger  might  think  Byron  or  the  Great 
Pessimist  reincarnated.  If  undergraduates  were  not  really 
quite  young  and  callow  as  Kotzebue,  the  tense  despair,  the 
theatrical  despondency,  the  heroic  solemnity  with  which  some 
of  them  regard  Yale,  might  lead  them  to  be  mistaken  for 
shattered  old  men.  But  perhaps  the  solemn  undergraduate  is 
merely  luxuriating  in  an  ecstasy  of  woe. 

[421] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

If  he  is  not  entirely  pleased  with  Melancholy,  this  youthful 
disciple  of  frowns  may  have  merely  turned  professional  Yale 
critic.  There  are  so  many  such  critics  that  one  wonders  how 
the  University,  or  the  College,  can  survive  another  hour ! 
What  heroism  it  is  for  them  to  brave  the  dangers  of  becoming 
cynics!  There  really  is  this  danger.  They  must  feel  the 
tremendous  thrills  of  the  martyr:  they  are  martyrs — in  sacri- 
ficing the  happiness  of  their  youth.  But  of  course  there  must 
be  martyrs.  Of  course,  some  obstreperous  children  must  be 
romantically  despondent.  And  nearly  everybody  must  despair 
of  Yale  (which  has  been  running  so  infernally,  so  miserably 
these  last  two  hundred  and  twelve  years),  and  stop  being 
cheerful. 

They  had  better  be  merry,  for  Yale  is  not  going  directly  to 
Patagonia;  and  undergraduates  are  not  grizzled  ancients.  If 
they  would  stop  gnawing  their  finger-nails  over  its  faults — 
eternal  worrying  cannot  make  Yale  perfect — and  grasp  its 
joys  and  precious  bait,  the  Byronic  gloom  would  vanish. 

ON  APPEARANCE 

We  wonder  how  many  of  our  gentle  readers  have  ever  noticed 
the  untidy  appearance  of  the  soft  shirt.  The  garment  is 
becoming  alarmingly  popular:  even  Faculty  members  are 
beginning  to  wallow  in  its  swinish  ease.  The  soft  shirt  is 
pardonable  only  when  it  is  accompanied  by  the  wildness  of 
genius,  by  wild  locks,  and  glittering  eyes.  With  these  even  a 
bandanna  would  be  more  appropriate.  But  on  one  of  us  not 
blessed  with  the  divine  spark  of  inspiration — or  burned  with 
it — the  soft  shirt  is  not  always  becoming.  How  unhappy  Jim 
Donnelly  would  look  in  one!  And  when  the  garment  is  super- 
imposed by  woolly  fringe  two  and  a  half  days  old, — the  appear- 
ance of  the  soft  shirt  devotee  is  not  beautified.  But  we  would 
ease  our  prattle  if  our  friends  would  cease  wearing  soft  shirts 
with  bonnets,  tall  and  green. 

At  that  witching  hour  when  the  printer's  devils  were  begin- 

[422] 


A  FEW  EDITORIALS 

ning  to  flit  through  the  inky  gloom,  and  lambent  flames  began 
to  play  about  the  pallid  brow  of  the  feverish  night  man,  we 
received — editorially — a  blow.  A  document  which  we  had 
prepared  for  this  morning  was,  and  had  to  be,  so  inflamma- 
tory that  we  decided  to  defer  its  publication  until  tomorrow. 
The  substitute  was  impromptu. 

THE  DREGS 

In  the  treatment  of  the  Deficient,  Yale  College  shows  too 
much  mercy.  The  passing  mark  is  within  the  reach  of  every- 
body not  publicly  confined.  It  is  ridiculously  low.  Yet  for 
not  achieving  it,  either  through  indifference  or  superhuman 
dullness,  almost  nobody  is  ever  expelled.  The  dregs  merely 
gravitate.  Now  any  man  unable  or  unwilling  to  meet  the 
requirements  for  staying  in  his  own  class,  is  unworthy  of 
membership  not  only  in  it,  but  also  in  the  College.  It  is  merely 
an  imposition  upon  the  men  in  the  class  below  to  retard  their 
progress  by  this  worthless  material. 

Ill  health  is  the  one  plausible  excuse  for  admission  to  a  lower 
class.  It  is  only  fair,  too,  to  the  laggard,  voluntary  or  not, 
to  put  him  out  of  his  intellectual  misery,  and  cast  him  into 
the  world  of  office  floors  and  errand  boys.  The  expulsion  of 
the  dregs  might  have  a  beneficent  effect  upon  those  nearing 
that  level. 

A  SHADOW  OF  ST-V-R 

The  typical  "college  hero,"  once  a  vapid  athletic  wax  model, 
skilled  in  the  use  of  slang  and  brawn,  has,  as  we  know,  within 
the  last  four  years  developed  symptoms  of  morbidity.  His 
mind,  like  his  body  at  sound  of  an  alarm  clock,  has  gone 
through  the  first  agony  of  awakening,  to  be  at  once  grasped 
and  tormented  by  a  passion  for  reforming.  The  awakening, 
to  be  sure,  gives  a  faint  ray  of  hope,  like  a  child's  first  teeth, 
in  promising  something  better — after  this  stormy  passion  has 
passed.  Our  own  great  Dink,  surely  graduated  from  New 
Haven  by  this  time,  we  like  to  think,  has  either  achieved  dis-

cretion,  or  death.  But  though  the  founder  of  the  race  has 
departed,  the  genus  Dink  has  not  become  extinct :  the  descend- 
ants of  our  hero  promise  to  be  as  numerous  as  those  of  ^Eneas. 
The  honor  of  harboring  the  latest  falls  to  Princeton,  where 
Deering,  formerly  of  Deal,  N.  J.,  is  holding  forth  in  decorated 
cloth  for  a  dollar-twenty-five  net. 

This  young  gentleman  has  every  trait  that  would  rejoice  his 
New  Haven  ancestor.  He  can  move  a  book  advertiser  to  an 
artificial  ecstasy.  He  can  move  Princeton.  Of  course,  he 
rushes  directly  from  the  frontispiece  into  a  hazing  match,  "of 
far-reaching  importance,"  and  then  into  a  few  football  games. 
He  stands  aside  for  a  moment,  with  the  deferential  air  of  a 
true  hero,  while  his  roommate  wins  "a  pretty  girl,  around 
whom,"  according  to  the  advertiser,  "there  centers  a  touch  of 
sentiment."  But  he  does  not  achieve  the  glory  characteristic 
of  his  race,  until  "at  the  sacrifice  of  much  that  he  values,"  he 
has  reformed  the  eating  club  system,  "the  fraternity  regime 
of  Princeton." 

With  this  dashing  fellow  whispering  in  every  Freshman's  ear, 
Princeton  at  once  becomes  perilously  infested.  The  true  and 
delightful  humor  of  a  second  Stover  snooping  around  strange 
places  can  be  appreciated  in  its  completeness  only  by  people 
living  in  New  Haven — whence  the  dejected  Dink  departed  late 
last  spring.  Now  it  is  Princeton's  turn.  It  will  be  amusing 
to  see  how  many  different  kinds  of  reforms  can  be  instituted 
there  by  troubled  undergraduates.  And  it  will  also  be  inter- 
esting to  see  how  soon  the  descendants  of  their  imposing 
ancestor  have  reformed  Harvard,  Williams,  Cornell,  Brown, 
Rutgers,  Pennsylvania,  Columbia,  and  a  few  other  American 
colleges. 

SPLENDIDLY  NULL 

Plain  people,  unaided  by  the  supernatural,  without  over- 
powering insight,  often  claim  to  perceive  what  they  call  the 
"Yale  type,"  over  which  gushing  school  girls  gently  rave. 
Nobody  ever  describes  this  precious  type;  but  everybody 

[425] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

knows  that  it  wears  correct  clothing,  and  has  faultless  manners 
and  morals.  It  smiles  discreetly,  and  silently;  and  sometimes 
it  has  tremendous  dumb  energy.  Of  this  type,  there  are  hun- 
dreds, with  no  more  variation  than  the  eggs  of  a  hen.  It  is 
perfectly  good;  but  it  is  offensive  in  being  utterly  inoffensive. 
It  is  never  wrongly  enthusiastic,  because  it  is  never  enthusiastic. 
It  never  has  heretical  thoughts,  because  it  never  thinks.  It 
acquires  and  gives  forth  ideas  with  all  the  precision  of  a  parrot. 
And  it  has  nearly  the  mental  power  of  the  original  Yale  Bull 
Dog. 

Physically,  this  "Yale  type"  was  once  rather  aggressive,  like 
the  Bull  Dog.  But  now  it  is  not  aggressive  at  all.  It  forms 
the  ideals  of  the  community ;  and  then  uses  all  its  energy  trying 
painfully  to  conform  to  itself.  It  has  no  aspirations  beyond 
itself,  no  mental  aspirations  whatever.  The  men  most  typical 
of  it  have  often  acquired  positions  where  sufficient  intellect  to 
purchase  or  sort  tickets  is  positively  required.  The  simple 
populace  observes  that  these  captains  of  undergraduate  indus- 
try, at  the  top  of  the  type,  use  their  predecessors'  brains 
wherever  possible;  and  the  simple  populace  instantly  stops 
thinking.  The  "Yale  type"  then  becomes  a  dumb  show.  But 
it  is  so  powerful  that  it  blights  or  discourages  even  healthy 
originality,  where  a  man  has  his  own  ideas  and  opinions.  The 
work  in  the  curriculum  does  not  encourage  it.  The  type  must 
stay  prosaic  and  dull;  and  where  sheep-like  undergraduates 
conform  to  it,  they  will  conform  to  mental  mediocrity,  which 
this  type  glorifies. 

But  the  greatest  trouble  with  the  "Yale  type"  is  not  that 
it  encourages  "faultily  faultless,  icily  regular,  splendidly  null" 
mentality,  but  that  it  is  perfectly  satisfied  with  itself.  It  skims 
its  few  pages.  It  struggles  for  its  little  positions,  and  its  little 
fame.  It  worries  itself  into  unhappiness.  It  absorbs  the  froth 
of  knowledge  and  gains  practically  no  mental  power  whatever. 
And  every  man  who  conforms  to  it  really  thinks  that  he  is 
getting  the  best  possible  education.  By  his  complacency,  and 
his  laziness,  every  such  man  is  dragging  on  the  few  of  mind 

[426]

and  purpose.  And  many  of  this  pseudo-Yale  type  are  criti- 
cising the  institutions  of  Yale,  when  they  should  be  prayerfully 
improving  or  criticising  themselves. 

AN  EPILOGUE 

At  the  end  of  our  regime,  without  risking  the  dangers  of 
excessive  brooding  over  the  past,  we  must  indulge  in  a  moment 
of  retrospection.  Last  February  we  decided  not  to  follow  the 
path  of  non-commission.  There,  indeed,  there  was  no  possi- 
bility of  being  in  the  wrong,  no  chance  of  giving  offense;  but 
there,  also,  there  was  no  hope  of  effecting  improvement  or  of 
uprooting  evil.  We  chose,  instead,  to  be  outspoken  in  whatever 
we  discussed,  regardless  of  the  danger  of  mistakes,  or  of  criti- 
cism, and  to  follow  what  we  thought  the  truth,  rather  than 
mere  precedent.  Hence  we  have  not  always  been  conservative. 
We  have  made  no  effort  to  agree  with  our  populace;  nor  have 
we  flattered  the  undergraduate  by  telling  him  what  he  thinks. 
It  is,  of  course,  impossible  either  to  condemn  our  work  or  to 
approve  it  by  specific,  and  deplorable  failures,  or  by  specific 
successes.  It  must  be  judged  as  a  whole.  But  whether  it 
receives  approval,  or  none,  we  do  not  care,  if  only  it  has  had 
some  slight  influence  for  the  betterment  of  Yale. 

We  have  thus  been  striving  so  constantly  for  what  Yale 
might  be,  that  we  may  seem  to  have  lost  sight  of  what  Yale 
actually  is.  The  ideal  has  perhaps  fascinated  us  to  unwonted 
violence.  It  is  a  place  of  greatest  possible  development  for 
every  individual,  that  we  have  visualized — where  every  activity 
has  value  in  itself;  where  men  can  advance  in  their  studies, 
unhampered,  according  to  their  ability ;  where  there  is  a  large 
appreciation  of  beauty,  and  the  natural  enthusiasm  of  youth; 
and  where  the  quality  of  the  undergraduates  and  of  their  work 
is  always  placed  above  quantity.  We  have  been  privileged 
merely  to  recall  this  ideal.  We  shall  be  happy  if  we  have 
helped  at  all  to  bring  it  nearer. 

We  do  not  like  to  stop :  a  year  is  much  too  short.

SOME  OF  RAND'S  POEMS  AS  THEY  APPEARED  IN 
THE  LIT.  AND  IN  HIS  BOOK  OF  VERSE 

SILENUS 

They  say  Silenus  danced  once  on  a  cliff 
That  dropped  a  hundred  even  fathoms  sheer 
To  black-toothed  reefs,  the  toppled  battlements 
Raised  by  Earth-Titans  when  the  world  was  young 
And  new  lands  braved  the  sea.     Aye,  on  the  verge 
The  leering  wood-god,  strayed  in  merry  maze 
From  fevered  Bacchanalia,  loosed  his  limbs 
In  a  wild  clumsy  choral  prancing,  till 
His  inky  shadow  mocked  the  silver  moon 
And  shocked  the  somber  dignity  of  night. 

And  now  when  seas  of  Time  have  drowned  the  torch 

That  flaunted  flaming  mane  at  Bacchic  feasts, 

Silenus  leaps  in  motley — here  a  patch 

Torn  from  a  pale  priest's  robe,  and  there  a  rag 

Of  silk  or  satin  from  a  lady's  gown; 

For  he  is  mad  with  stronger  drink  than  wine, 

And  he  is  mad  with  baser  flame  than  lust, 

And  from  the  rim  of  Time,  wild-drunk  with  life, 

Flings  empty  flagons  at  the  Infinite.

Look  ye,  O  children,  the  rose  is  blown — 

Gay  is  our  garden  now — 
For  the  Sun  is  trailing  his  robes  of  gold, 
Warm  and  scented,  and  fold  on  fold, 
Like  a  spendthrift  monarch,  has  reckless  thrown 

His  cloak  o'er  a  blossoming  bough :

So  wearily  over  the  wall, 
Whisper  "0  rest  ye  now 

To  our  failing  minstrelsy — " 

O  to  be  free, 

Young  and  free, 
And  sleep  in  the  shade  of  the  wall ! 

THE  CHILDREN 

If  ye  climb  by  the  twisted  oak 
That  grows  in  the  garden  there, 

(There's  a  limb  that  ye  all  may  grip, 

If  ye  dare  the  risk  of  a  slip, 

And  the  toll  of  a  tattered  cloak, 
And  a  snarl  of  twigs  in  your  hair) 

Ye  may  win,  if  ye  do  not  fall, 

To  the  top  of  the  garden  wall. 

Over,  O  over  the  garden  wall, 

Out  to  the  beckoning  road — 
Looping  away  where  the  mountains  call, 
Stooping  to  play  where  the  valleys  fall, 
Down  to  the  shore  of  a  sunlit  sea 
Flashes  the  beckoning  road — 
O  to  be  free, 
Old  and  free, 
And  follow  the  beckoning  road!

A  shroud  for  the  reeking  ground?

Close?     Too  close!     We'd  'a'  joined  the  wrecks 

And  the  dead  on  the  houseless  sand, 
But  the  failing  glare  of  the  last  grim  Hearth 

Warned  us  away  from  the  land. 

'Ware !     There's  a  light  on  the  weed-flung  beach — 

Off — beat  off — swing  wide ! 
For  the  ghost-glow  flares  on  the  breakers'  crests 

In  the  gay  surf-wash  overside. 
Off — beat  off — ye've  the  plague  to  praise 

And  the  beacon  of  Dead  Man's  Light — 
Aye,  thank  your  gods  that  they  burned  a  corpse 

From  the  cholera-camp  this  night ! 

'Ware !     There's  a  light  on  the  foam-ringed  beach — 

Out — swing  out — to  the  sea  ! 
And  thank  your  gods  for  the  on-shore  wind 

That  keeps  ye  fever- free; 
The  wind  that  sweeps  from  the  ocean-waste, 

Cold  and  honest  and  clean, 
And  swirls  the  sand  on  the  ghost-rid  dunes 

Where  the  bare-picked  wrecks  careen.

A  PAGAN'S  CREED 

A  flow  of  golden  shadows,  love  and  laughter, 

And  gleam  of  summer  tears; 
Bright  spectres  born  of  sunlight — and  then  after 

Come  the  dead  years. 

For  what  is  life  without  the  loss  and  winning — 

The  lure  of  lidded  glance, 
The  ecstasy  of  joyous-hearted  sinning, 

The  shadow-dance 

By  moonlight  down  an  ilex-hidden  hollow 

Of  mountain  solitudes, 
Where  the  dear  ghosts  of  dead  Bacchantes  follow 

Through  haunted  woods? 

[431] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

Life  is  a  pagan,  dancing  in  the  glamour 

Of  ruddy  sunset-light, 
Who  scorns  the  sequel  to  the  revel's  clamor — 

Tears  in  the  night. 

So,  though  the  years  bring  dearth  of  easy  pardon, 

And  wealth  of  barren  ground, 
Still  let  the  torchlight  waver  down  the  garden, 

The  cymbals  sound — 

Till,  through  the  panting,  bare-limbed  festal  madness, 

With  the  red  morning-glow 
Comes  at  the  last  the  clear-eyed  cynic  sadness 

The  wise  Gods  know. 

THE  LONELY  ROAD 

I  think  thou  waitest,  Love,  beyond  the  Gate — 
Eager,  with  wind-stirred  ripples  in  thy  hair; 

I  have  not  found  thee,  and  the  hour  is  late, 
And  harsh  the  weight  I  bear. 

Far  have  I  sought,  and  flung  my  wealth  of  years 
Like  a  young  traveler,  gay  at  careless  inns — 

See  how  the  wine-stain  whitens  'neath  the  tears 
My  burden  wins ! 

And  wilt  thou  know  me,  Love,  with  bended  back, 
Or  wilt  thou  scorn  me,  in  so  drear  a  guise? 

I  have  a  wealth  of  sorrows  in  my  pack, 
One  lonely  prize — 

Thy  dream — and  dross  of  sin.  .    .   .  O,  dim  the  fields— 
I  may  not  find  thee  in  so  dark  a  land — 

Yet  I  await  what  hope  the  turning  yields 
And  beg  with  empty  hand. 

THE  LIAR 

I  wrought  me  a  lyric  of  fire  and  fear, 

And  called  on  the  world  to  heed — 
Till  strong  men  blenched  at  my  haggard  face 

And  shuddered,  but  would  not  read.

SOME  or  RAND'S  POEMS 

So  I  stole  me  the  gold  of  the  mines  of  Joy 

And  fashioned  a  conscious  lie — 
And  they  gave  me  the  wreath  of  the  kings  of  Song 

And  prayed  that  I  might  not  die! 

(For  the  lie  that  I  wrought  was  as  old  as  the  world 

And  dear  as  the  vision  of  Heaven — 
Of  the  crimson  lure  of  a  maiden's  lips 

And  the  myth  of  a  sin  forgiven!) 

But  my  heart  was  sick,  and  my  soul  grew  less, 

With  the  light  of  my  failing  days, 
Because  I  had  lied  to  my  Knowledge-God 

For  the  pottage  of  human  praise. 

O  I  clung  to  the  rim  of  the  cliffs  of  Hell 

And  called  on  an  empty  Name — 
Till  there  dropped  the  tears  of  a  weeping  Truth 

And  saved  my  soul  from  the  flame. 

So  I  hid  my  soul  in  a  maiden's  hair, 

And  climbed  to  a  clearer  view — 
And  I  found  I  had  lied  to  a  lying  God, 

And  the  myth  I  had  sung — was  true!

'THE   DEAN" 


A  FEW  "DAILY  THEMES" 

THE  ADVANTAGES  or  BEING  ON  PRO. 

Being  of  a  highly  lazy  and  shiftless  nature,  I  have  had  the 
fortune  to  be  on  cut  or  mark  probation,  or  both,  every  term 
but  one  since  I  have  been  in  attendance  at  Mr.  Hadley's  col- 
lege. Until  I  have  exceeded  my  allowance  of  absences  I  am  in  a 
fearful  state.  I  never  get  up  in  the  morning,  never  eat  break- 
fast, never  do  a  lesson,  never  go  to  bed.  I  do  not  know  my 
professors  by  sight  till  after  two  or  three  weeks  of  wild  cutting 
and  marking  have  resulted  in  a  cold  note  from  Mr.  Tully  and 
a  subsequent  notification  that  I  am  on  pro.  Ah!  then  what 
a  change  comes  over  my  life.  I  rise  early,  wash,  dress  and 
breakfast,  all  with  great  leisure  and  comfort,  stroll  to  chapel 
at  eight  minutes  after  eight,  and  attend  every  class,  arriving 
just  one  and  one-half  minutes  ahead  of  time.  I  write  home 
often,  refrain  from  the  nightly  poker  session  and  drinking  bout, 
and  am  in  bed  every  night  by  half-past  eleven.  My  step  is 
firm  and  my  eye  clear,  for  now  I  have  a  firm  rock  beneath  my 
feet.  No  temptation  toward  cutting  an  unprepared  recitation 
disturbs  my  erstwhile  vacillating  mind.  My  whole  life  is  a 
model  of  regularity  and  order;  janitors  set  their  watches  by 
my  movements,  as  more  accurate  than  the  chapel  clock.  And 
I  never  plunge  into  my  little  white  trundle  bed  at  night  without 
a  grateful  prayer  to  Dean  Jones,  thanking  him  for  his  all- 
provident  wisdom  in  establishing  the  institution  of  "probation."

ON  THE  ART  OF  WPIISTUNG  IN  A  BATHROOM 

It  is  needlessly  rude  to  ask  whether  you  have  ever  stood 
under  a  shower-bath,  but  it  is  quite  essential  to  know  whether 
you  have  ever  whistled  there.  Try  it  some  time.  The  falling 
water  and  the  steam  lend  a  peculiar  mellow  tone  which  is  echoed 

[435] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

and  re-echoed  against  the  tiled  walls  until  one's  simple  note  is 
trilled  into  innumerable  superimposed  harmonies  and  the  whole 
place  seems  alive  with  the  joy  of  music.  Some  day  I  shall  give 
a  concert  in  a  bathroom.  Will  you  come? 

THE  WET  BALL  (By  Doc  CORNISH) 

Here  comes  that  damn  ball,  about  three  miles  in  the  air  and 
twisting  like  a  spinning  top.  From  the  experience  of  a  few 
moments  before  you  know  it  is  as  wet  and  slimy  and  slippery 
as  a  piece  of  wet  soap.  Will  it  ever  come  down?  It  is  still  a 
half-mile  up  and  the  ends  are  coming  at  you  like  racing  steers. 

At  last  it  has  come  and  you  have  formed  the  pretty  little 
basket  of  arms  and  stomach  into  which  any  decent  dry  ball 
would  drop  and  lie  contented.  This  is  not  an  ordinary  ball. 
It  hits  the  basket  all  right  but  doesn't  stop  there  for  long. 
You  give  it  a  little  squeeze  and  it  slips  a  little.  You  squeeze 
harder,  to  stop  it.  Just  then  someone  hits  you  right  where 
that  little  basket  had  been.  Zip!  The  ball  has  gone  like  a 
shot.  You  make  a  few  strenuous  efforts  to  grab  it  as  it  goes 
and  then  hear  the  referee  award  the  ball  to  your  opponents. 

THE  WAYS  OF  PROVIDENCE 

Jim  holed  out  his  put  on  the  eighteenth  green  and  cheerily 
walked  to  the  clubhouse,  his  beaten  opponent  following  him 
less  buoyantly.  He  looked  at  his  watch.  "Five  o'clock,"  he 
murmured.  That  seemed  to  recall  something  to  his  mind  and 
he  scratched  his  head  in  a  puzzled  way.  "Good  God !  I  forgot 
I  had  physiology  !"  Jim  bellowed.  "Damn  me  for  an  ass  !"  The 
Dean  had  told  him  another  cut  would  mean  a  two  weeks'  rusti- 
cation, and  he  was  having  Helen  up  for  both  the  Brown  and 
Princeton  games.  All  the  exuberance  of  having  beaten  Hal 
for  the  first  time  was  gone.  "Was  ever  a  man  so  shot  with 
hard  luck?"  he  thought,  as  he  kicked  off  his  golf  shoes.  Two 
hours  later  he  sat  in  his  room  in  the  depths  of  despair  trying 

[436] 


A  FEW  "DAILY  THEMES" 

to  explain  in  his  letter  to  Helen  what  rustication  meant  and 
that  he  couldn't  have  her  up.  His  roommate,  Bob,  burst  in, 
eyed  him  scornfully,  and  said,  "Just  about  outdoing  yourself 
to  get  rusticated,  aren't  you,  Jim?"  "Thanks,"  was  Jim's 
ironic  answer.  "Don't  thank  me,  thank  Underhill;  he  gave  us 
a  cut  this  afternoon!"  Jim  deliberately  tore  up  his  letter;  a 
glimmer  of  the  faith  in  Providence  which  he  had  lost  years  ago 
returned. 

THE  QUINNIPIAC  AT  EVENING 

Swept  by  the  wind,  flattened  smears  of  smoke  scrawled 
across  the  sky.  The  rain  had  stopped,  but  the  clouds  still 
hung  low  in  an  almost  pure  monochrome.  Against  this  back- 
ground the  taut  rigging  of  the  four-masted  schooner  Dean 
E.  Brown  stood  out  like  the  lines  of  a  Whistler  etching. 
Between  her  masts  a  pink-yellow  tongue  of  blast-furnace 
glowed  sharp,  and  died  again  into  the  soft  dominant.  The 
merely-breathing  wind  mingled  salt  tang  and  city  medley  into 
a  toneless  smell  of  mystery.  Lights  appeared  stealthily  along 
the  shore,  but  seemed  as  unreal  and  ineffectual  as  their 
reflected  paths  in  the  dark  water  close  at  hand.  Three  belated 
oyster-fishers  sculled  their  half-seen  skiffs  up  the  river,  shat- 
tering the  reflected  gleams  of  light  into  a  thousand  sparkles. 
They  passed  on  into  the  gathering  dark,  and  the  dim-yellow 
light-streams  resumed  their  tranquillity. 

AT  LAST 

When  it  came  my  turn  I  leaned  over  the  desk  and  murmured 
carelessly,  "I  had  a  note  to  report  today,  Mr.  Tully."  Mr. 
Tully  glared  upon  me  with  all  the  vehemence  of  his  one  hundred 
and  twenty  pounds  of  nervous  energy  condensed  into  a  wither- 
ing stare.  I  gave  no  sign  that  I  felt  it,  and  added,  "The  name 
is  Smith,  class  of  1914."  He  snorted.  "Guess  I  ought  to 
know  you  by  this  time,  Mr.  Smith.  Are  you  aware  (this  with 
biting  sarcasm)  that  your  total  of  marks  taken  so  far  this  term 

[437] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

is  38?"  I  shifted  easily  to  the  other  foot  and  inquired  blandly, 
"How  about  cuts?"  "You're  doing  well  on  cuts,  only  19."  I 
tried  to  look  politely  interested.  "Ah!  is  that  all,  sir?"  Mr. 
Tully,  I  noted  with  delight,  grasped  at  the  arms  of  his  chair, 
and  was  apparently  on  the  point  of  having  a  spasm.  "Is  that 
all?"  he  repeated,  evidently  controlling  himself  with  the  great- 
est difficulty.  "Isn't  that  about  enough?  Do  you  realize  that 
every  cut  or  mark  you  take  from  now  on  means  an  hour  off? 
You're  lucky  the  Dean  hasn't  rusticated  you  to  Milford  for 
six  weeks!"  "Milford?  Ah,  a  very  pleasant  little  place.  I 
remember  the  Milford  Inn — could  you  tell  me  if  there  is  any 
chance  of  the  Dean's  reconsidering  his  decision?"  Mr.  Tully, 
that  doughty  impersonation  of  even-handed  justice,  was  floored 
at  last.  "I  haven't  time  to  talk  to  you !  Next  man !"  he  said 
chokingly,  his  face  purple  with  rage.  I  walked  out  of  the  office 
jauntily.  I  was  on  "pro." — true,  but  I  had  achieved  the 
purpose  of  my  college  career — I  had  "hung  one  on  old  Tully." 

THE  BROMIDIAN 

It  seems  to  me  that  I  have  never  noticed  the  bromidian  so 
much  as  I  have  this  year  on  getting  back  to  college.  If  one 
person  has  asked  me  if  I  have  had  a  good  summer,  at  least  one 
hundred  and  fifty  have.  I  told  the  first  fifty  perhaps  that  I 
had,  and  hoped  that  they  had,  also — but  after  that  number  I 
just  glared,  said  "Yes,"  and  departed  in  haste.  "Isn't  Wright 
a  great  change  from  Old  Alumni?"  and  "How  well  the  Campus 
looks  with  all  its  new  grass  and  the  brick  pavement,"  are 
others  which  delighted  my  heart.  I  thought  I  had  •  about 
reached  the  string  of  them  when  this  afternoon  I  called  on  a 
Freshman  who  is  rooming  in  the  above-mentioned  dormitory. 
I  found  him  in,  and  before  he  could  get  them  off  on  me  I  flung 
the  bromides  at  him.  I  thought  I  had  omitted  none  of  them, 
but  as  I  was  just  getting  my  coat  on  he  said,  "Well,  Bill,  now 
that  you've  found  the  way,  do  come  soon  again."  I  grabbed 
my  hat  and  ran  down  the  hall,  muttering  as  I  went. 

[438] 


A  FEW  "DAILY  THEMES" 

THE  DANCER 

She  was  doing  a  toe-dance  in  black  tights.  Plump,  muscular, 
small  and  ugly,  she  darted  around,  like  an  animated  gnat,  in 
perfect  rhythm.  Jeers  and  howls  of  suddenly  unbottled 
laughter  sparkled  from  the  fellows.  Never  before  had  any- 
thing quite  so  funny  been  seen  at  Poli's.  Bravely  she  tried  to 
smile  down  the  sense  of  burlesque  that  her  "Squab-liquities" 
had  unchained. 

"Oh,  my  gawd,  my  gawd!"  groaned  Newbold,  from  the  first 
row.  She  couldn't  bear  it  any  longer.  The  smile  faded  from 
her  lips  and  still  dancing  bravely,  fantastically,  but  spiritlessly 
on,  she  sobbed — so  low  that  only  a  very  few  could  hear:  "I 
wish  I  wuz  home !  I  wish  I  wuz  home !" 

SLEEPLESSNESS 

He  flung  back  the  bedclothes,  flounced  to  his  feet  and  groped 
his  way  to  the  window.  His  bare  feet  shrank  back  from  a 
soggy  heap  of  wet  snow  on  the  floor.  Leaning  on  the  sill,  his 
elbows  melting  dark  patches  in  the  fluffy  driftlet  that  covered 
it,  he  gazed  out.  Up  the  street  a  blurred  arc-light  swung  to 
and  fro  in  the  flurries,  creaking  and  clicking.  There  was  no 
other  sound  except  the  rustle  and  swish  of  the  drifting  snow 
in  the  dim  street.  Shivering,  he  drew  back,  brushed  the  flakes 
from  his  hair,  went  into  the  bathroom  and  ran  himself  a  drink. 
The  water  tasted  warm  and  flat.  The  tinkle  of  the  glass  on 
the  washstand  seemed  to  echo  through  the  whole  house.  Shak- 
ing silently  he  tiptoed  back  to  bed,  curled  up  under  the  luke- 
warm sheets,  and,  eyes  tight  shut,  began  to  whisper  the 
multiplication  table.

The  mellow  chime  of  the  chapel  bells 

Sounds  faint  and  far  away, 
Like  perfume  rare,  the  morning  air 

Heralds  the  dawning  day. 
And  underneath  my  window  then 

Bursts  forth  this  roundelay: —

INTIMATE  INTERVIEWS 

Evening  in  Lawrance.  The  fire  in  the  fireplace  was  spark- 
ling like  the  Apollinaris  at  the  Lit.  banquet.  Across  the 
Campus,  the  Freshman  Glee  was  chirping  spasmodically. 

Dink  Stover  sat  looking  desperately  at  Dink  Stover. 

"All  alone,"  babbled  the  abecedarians  in  Dwight. 

"Yes,  Dink,  we're  all  alone  at  last,"  remarked  Dink  Stover 
keenly,  taking  his  cue  from  the  rack  in  Dwight  Hall. 

"Well,"  replied  the  other,  in  his  most  artesian  manner, 
"you've  got  to  decide  it  for  yourself." 

"Great  God !"  cried  Dink  flippantly,  "it's  too  much  to  expect 
of  me." 

[442] 


GEMS  FROM  THE  Record 

Dink  was  in  agony.  Not  that  he  was  one  of  the  Norwich 
Minstrels,  but  a  great  problem  had  slapped  him  on  the  wrist. 
Should  he  resign  from  the  Elizabethan  Club?  Could  he  give 
up  those  delightful  evenings  around  the  merry  ginger-beer 
bowl  infinitesimally  dipping  a  tentative  straw  into  its  vivacious 
nepenthe  ? 

"I  suppose  for  the  sake  of  dear  old  Yale  I  must  make  the 
sacrifice,"  he  clamored  to  himself. 

Dink  Stover  overheard  him. 

"Good  old  Dink,"  he  whispered  unsympathetically. 

"Mory's  must  be  saved,"  suspired  the  other.  "The  spiritual 
interests  of  the  College,  Lenox  Hall,  drinking,  the  glad  hand, 
the  convivial  board,  these  must  not  fail  because  of  the  riotous 
amusement  of  a  few  low-brows  in  a  Club !" 

Stover  applied  a  T-square  to  his  jaw.  Opening  his  mouth, 
he  wound  up  his  teeth  and  set  them. 

"By  God,  Dink,  I'll  do  it !"  he  admitted  weakly. 

"Good  old  Dink,"  murmured  Stover  splenetically. 

FATHER  WILLIAM,  '68 

"You  are  old,,  Father  William/'  the  young  man  said, 
"Peace  and  quiet  are  what  you  should  like; 

It  looks  funny  for  you,  when  you  should  be  in  bed, 
To  go  riding  around  on  a  bike." 

"When  I  was  a  Freshman,"  the  old  man  replied, 

"I  covered  Grad.  Schools  for  the  News, 
And  the  bicycle  craze  that  I  got  in  those  days 

I've  never  been  able  to  lose." 

"You  are  old,"  said  the  youth,  "and  a  man  would  suppose 

Your  voice  would  be  husky  and  weak, 
Yet  you  drown  out  the  sound  of  the  wind  when  it  blows, 

And  you  shatter  glass  panes  when  you  speak." 

"In  my  bright  college  years,"  said  the  sprightly  old  man, 

"I  made  the  Apollo  quartet; 
In  one  season — no  more — I  developed  that  roar, 

And  I  haven't  got  over  it  yet." 

[443]

"You  are  old/'  said  the  youth,  "as  I  mentioned  before, 
And  should  not  have  much  strength  in  your  jaws; 

Yet  you're  able  to  bite  the  brass  knob  from  a  door — 
Had  you  just  as  soon  tell  me  the  cause?" 

"You  ask  too  many  questions/'  the  old  man  replied, 
"And  you  don't  observe  things  as  you  might, 

Or  you'd  know  the  best  thing  to  develop  the  jaw 
Is  plain  Commons  beefsteak — Good-night !" 


THE  WIFIES 
(With  twofold  apologies) 

I've  taken  my  rooms  where  I've  found  'em, 

I've  flushed  an'  I've  ragged  in  my  time; 
I've  'ad  my  pickin'  o'  bunkies, 

An'  five  o'  the  lot  was  sublime  (?) 
One  was  a  greasy  grinder, 

One  was  a  "Thought-he-knew-how," 
One  was  a  fusser  an'  helluva  sport, 

An'  the  last  two  are  cussin'  me  now! 

I  was  a  green  un  in  Pierson, 

Slow  as  a  pup  to  begin, 
Calvin  D.  Grinder  he  made  me, 

An'  Calvy  was  holy  as  sin. 
Knew  more  than  me  by  a  long  shot, 

More  like  a  tutor  so  grim; 
Said  I  ought  not  to  read  Greek  with  a  trot, 

An'  I  learned  about  roommates  from  'im! 

Then  I  was  shifted  to  Farnam 

In  fall  o'  my  Sophomore  year, 
An'  I  got  me  a  stupid  young  'eathen, 

With  a  twist  in  his  bean  that  was  queer. 
Harmless,  an'  simple  as  kittens — 

Bonehead  was  no  name  for  Jim. 
But  'e  "knew  it  all"  (nit)  tho'  I  near  'ad  a  fit, 

An'  I  learned  about  roommates  from  'im!

(Used  a  mirror  to  practice  his  bow!), 
Taught  me  the  smart  set's  lingo; 

Boozed  and  played  cards  with  a  vim, 
For  'e  sloughed  me  one  night,  comin'  'ome  roarin'  tight, 

An'  I  learned  about  roommates  from  'im! 

Then  I  wound  up  on  The  Campus, 

Roomin'  in  Vandy  serene;

II 

Is  it  true,  this  thing  you  tell  me,,  that  the  good  old  tunes  are  dead, 
That  the  newer  ones  are  classy  and  you  have  to  keep  ahead? 
"Hearts  and  Flowers"  was  immortal,  I  remember  once  you  said. 

Ill 

"What  the  Studio  would  stand  for  doesn't  go  at  the  Comique," 
Thus  you  fling  across  your  shoulder,  and  I  shudder  as  you  speak, 
Playing  turkey-trots  and  tangoes — twenty  new  ones  every  week. 

IV 

"All  the  Girlies,"  so  you  tinkle,  as  the  couple,  gray  and  old, 

On  the  film  are  reunited;  and  I  want  the  heart  to  scold: 

Ah,  Thalia !  what's  become  of  "Silver  Threads  Among  the  Gold"  ? 

SOME  NEW  ADVENTURES  OF  STOVER 
(Not  by  O.  Johnson,  1900) 

1.  The  Awakening  of  Democracy 

Big  Tom  Mulligan  rose  to  go.  Dink's  best  chair  creaked 
and  fell  to  pieces  as  he  rose,  and  our  hero  thrilled  with  a  sense 
of  the  man's  power.  Dink  followed  him  to  the  door,  where, 
with  easy  nonchalance,  Mulligan  bit  off  the  better  half  of  a 
large  slab  of  eating  tobacco. 

"You  have  made  me  see  things  in  a  new  light,"  said  Dink. 
"God  bless  you!" 

The  next  morning  he  went  out  and  bought  six  flannel  shirts 
and  a  ready-made  tie.

2.  The  Sentimental  Motif 

Dink,  for  the  first  time,  looked  her  squarely  in  the  face.  He 
had  never  really  noticed  before  her  beautiful  large  black  eyes. 
She  seemed  to  be  waiting  for  him  to  open  the  conversation. 

"I  feel  confoundedly  sentimental,"  thought  Stover,  uneasily. 
Then  he  spoke  to  her:  "Do  you  get  those  lovely  black  eyes 
from  your  mother?" 

[446] 


GEMS  FROM  THE  Record 

"No ;  my  father  gave  me  those,"  she  replied.  "The  old  lady 
usually  lands  on  my  jaw.  Did  you  say  cornflakes  and  cream?"

3.     A  Scene  from  Student  Life 

The  room  was  thick  with  tobacco  smoke.  Off  in  one  corner, 
Bill  Simmons,  the  Freshman  from  Wyoming,  was  dealing  faro 
for  the  entertainment  of  two  assistant  professors  and  the  cap- 
tain of  the  chess  team.  Old  Tom  Mulligan  was  explaining  to 
the  rest  of  the  crowd  how  much  it  improved  the  looks  of  a 
room  to  sprinkle  sawdust  on  the  floor.  Dink,  who  was  sitting 
on  the  hearth-rug,  his  legs  idly  dangling,  could  not  help  con- 
trasting the  scene  with  the  rich  luxuriousness  of  his  own 
apartments  in  the  bridal  suite  of  the  Hotel  Taft.  He  felt 
that  he  had  at  last  tracked  and  run  to  earth  the  true  Yale 
spirit,  and  the  thought  coursed  through  his  veins  like  new 
wine.  He  rose  and  addressed  Bill  Simmons,  his  voice  choky 
with  emotion. 

"Lend  me  your  Durham,  old  man,"  he  said.  "I'm  dying  for 
a  drag."

(Beg  pardon,  Clari) 

When  Rosenberg  low  lieth 
The  students  call,  "Oh,  fie! 

Let  curses  on  him  fall." 
But  the  solemn  Phi  Bet'  sigheth 

For  things  sartorial 
With  a  Grecian  melody 
Of  tragic  agony 
When  Rosenberg  low  lieth. 

At  eve  old  Battell  boometh 

With  a  discordant  tone. 
At  noon  the  classroom  glummeth 

Or  gives  a  lunchless  groan. 
At  midnight  the  drunk  cometh 

Alas !  but  not  alone. 

[447] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

When  ire  within  him  swelleth 
The  mighty  Soph'more  yelleth, 

The  callow  Freshman  frisketh, 
The  angry  Junior  helleth 

And  thus  his  chances  risketh; 
His  wrath  no  man  denieth, 
When  Rosenberg  low  lieth. 

To  THE  DRAMATIC  ASSOCIATION 

They  will  dig  up  a  mummied  drama — they  will  brush  it  and  comb 

its  hair, 
They  will  dress  it  in  modern  plumage,  'til  the  author  would  rave 

and  swear. 
They'll  rewrite  all  the  portions  that  please  them,  and  expurgate 

those  that  do  not, 
And  make  up  with  elegant  costumes  the  parts  that  they  lose  of 

the  plot. 

But  however  the   critic   may   grumble ;   however   the   scholar   may 

blame, 
The  people  who  come  to  Commencement  delight  in  the  show  all 

the  same. 
And  you'll  give  to  the  audience  assembled,  a  joy  which  no  critic 

can  mar, 
When  you  play  the  play  as  it  wasn't  for  the  people  at  Yale  as 

they  are. 

THE  KING  OF  THE  BENZENE  RING;  OR  THE  FATAL  Kiss 
(By  A.  C.  Swinburne,  Provided  He'd  Been  a  Chemist) 

There   once   was    a   rogue    of   a   homologue,    of   the   tribe    of    the 

Brombenzenes, 
Who   dared  to   care   for   the   daughter   fair   of   the   phyle   of   the 

Phenylenes ; 

Cried  he,  "My  divinity,  chemic  affinity  calls  us  to  clasp  and  kiss, 
And  to  swift  unite  with  a  flash  of  light  in  a  hydrocarbonic  bliss! 
O  take  no  swain  like  the  dull  Methane  of  the  dissolute  Disacryl— 
Would  ye  be  the  bride  of  an  aldehyde  or  a  chloride  of  cacodyl? 

[448] 


GEMS  FROM  THE  Record 

Would  ye  be  the  queen  of  a  base  Amine?     O  hark  to  the  song 

I  sing — 
For  I'm  no  hydroxyl  nor  humble  carboxyl,  but  King  of  the  Benzene 

Ring!" 
Said  the  maid,  "You'll  excuse  me,  for,  though  you  amuse  me,  I 

fear  I  shall  never  be  wed; 
My  nature  ketonic  needs  friendship  platonic,  at  marriage  I  tremble 

with  dread; 

Still  if  you'll  gargle  with  dipropargyl  and  kindly  distil  on  a  bath, 
When  you're  perfectly   sure  that  you're   perfectly  pure,  to   allay 

your  excusable  wrath, 

A  kiss  organic  and  hydrocyanic  I'll  print  on  your  manly  lips." 
He  cried,  "Ah,  love,  till  the  Bunsens   above  in  the  lockers   have 

suffered  eclipse, 
Till   Professors    are   dead   and   the    formulae   said   and   all   of   the 

lectures  done, 
That  kiss  I'll  keep  till  the  final  sleep  shall  snatch  me  away  from 

the  Sun!" 
So  he  bent  his  head — they  kissed! — then  dead  he  fell  to  the  floor 

with  a  moan ! 

"O  help !  it's  catalysis  !     My  analysis  !  here  I  am  all  alone !" 
Cried   the   maid    in    fright — then,    O    horrible    sight ! — she    turned 

leuco-malachite  green, 
For  a  spectre  arose  from  a  heap  of  glucose  and  addressed  her  with 

mournful  mien! 

"Alas !  by  the  bliss  of  a  prussic  kiss  I  was  deftly  dehydrolyzed, 
But   I'll   gauntly   haunt   and   I'll   grimly   daunt  till   you're  utterly 

polymerized! 
No  more  you'll  eat  of  the  glycol  sweet   and  sleep   in  peace  and 

alone, 
For     there     in     the     dark     I'll     await     you     stark,     O     wicked 

Phenanthraquinone !" 

ACROSS  THE  FIELDS  TO  VAN 
(With  apologies  to  Richard  Burton)

walks,   particularly   the   main   thoroughfares,   would   be    even 
more  desirable." — Yale  News,  November  5,  1913. 

On  either  side  the  crosswalks  lie 
Long  fields  of  barley  and  of  rye, 
Enclosed  by  lines  of  shrubbery 

In  geometric  plan, 
Where  stately  Seniors  wander  by, 

Across  the  fields  to  Van. 

Where  baseball  reigned  in  other  days, 
The  slender,  scented  poppy  sways; 
An  archway  opens  through  the  maze — 

The  long  stalks  form  the  span. 
And  down  this  vista  Sophomores  gaze 

Across  the  fields  to  Van. 

The  sunshine  streaming  down  in  floods 
Strikes  color  from  the  clover-buds, 
Where  peaceful  cattle  chew  their  cuds, 

And  with  a  sprinkling-can 
The  Dean  goes  watering  his  spuds, 

Across  the  fields  to  Van. 

No  more  the  antic  Sophomores  play 
Upon  the  sward  when  ends  the  day; 
But  each  still  star  sends  down  a  ray 

On  meads  untrod  by  man. 
Come,  let  us  take  our  quiet  way 

Across  the  fields  to  Van.

the  Class  have  been  in  is  seventeen.  Two  have  been  in  all  the 
states,  while  one  has  been  in  only  two.  The  average  number 
of  four-year  men  with  whom  each  man  is  unacquainted,  is 
twenty-eight,  while  thirty-eight  men  are  acquainted  with  all 
their  classmates.  One  hundred  and  forty-four  men  have  been 
abroad. 

One  hundred  and  eighty-two  men  have  done  no  work  while 
in  College  towards  paying  their  way  through  College;  while 
one  hundred  and  fourteen  have  engaged  in  some  form  of  work 
with  this  end  in  view.  Of  the  latter,  twenty-eight  have  done 
tutoring,  twenty-six  have  worked  in  the  summer,  nineteen  have 
waited  on  table  and  thirteen  have  managed  eating  houses. 
Forty-six  other  occupations  are  mentioned.  A  total  of  thirty- 
one  members  of  the  class  have  succeeded  in  paying  all  their 
expenses  while  at  College.  The  average  per  cent  of  College 
expenses  paid  by  each  of  the  one  hundred  and  fourteen  men 
spoken  of  above  is  forty-nine.  The  average  per  cent  of  the 
total  expenses  of  each  member  of  the  class  paid  by  him  by 
work  done  during  College  is  eighteen. 

The  average  age  of  the  class  is  22  years  6  months.  The 
oldest  man  is  36,  the  youngest,  19  years  4  months.  The  aver- 
age weight  is  149%  pounds.  The  heaviest  man,  210  pounds, 

[458]

is  just  twice  the  weight  of  the  lightest,  105  pounds.  Five  feet 
10  inches  is  the  average  height  of  the  class;  the  tallest  man, 
6  feet  4  inches,  being  just  a  foot  taller  than  the  shortest.

The  average  yearly  allowance  received  from  home,  of  the 
two  hundred  and  eighty-three  men  who  stipulated  their  income, 
is  $985.  This  includes  forty-one  members  of  the  Class  who 
received  no  money  from  their  families  during  their  College 
course. 

The  largest  individual  expenses  of  the  four  years  are  as 
follows :  Freshman  year,  $2,800 ;  Sophomore  year,  $3,400 ; 
Junior  year,  $4,000,  Senior  year,  $5,300.  Total,  $15,500. 
Smallest  individual  expenses:  Freshman  year,  $100;  Sopho- 
more year,  $150 ;  Junior  year,  $200 ;  Senior  year,  $350.  Total, 
$800.  Perhaps  the  most  valuable  of  these  statistics,  however, 
the  average  expenditures  of  the  Class,  in  each  of  the  four  years 
of  College,  are  as  follows:  Freshman  year,  $1,070;  Sophomore 
year,  $1,103;  Junior  year,  $1,204;  Senior  year,  $1,230.  The 
average  expense  per  man  for  the  entire  four  years  is  $4,607. 
It  is  estimated  from  these  and  other  figures  of  the  two  hundred 
and  thirty-two  members  of  the  Class,  who  made  mention  of 
their  expenses  on  the  statistical  blanks,  that  the  total  expense 
of  these  men,  throughout  their  college  course,  was  $1,068,925.

OPINIONS  ON  VARIOUS  COLLEGE  TOPICS 

In  order  to  obtain  the  sentiment  and  constructive  opinion  of 
the  Class  on  the  various  phases  of  Yale  life, — its  organizations 
and  its  social  system,  eight  questions  involving  somewhat 
lengthy  answers  were  asked  this  year  on  the  statistical  blanks. 
Replies  to  these  questions,  embodying  our  ideas  about  Yale, 
and  our  suggestions  for  the  general  welfare  of  the  College,  are 
here  set  down,  with  the  twofold  purpose, — that  they  may  per- 
chance be  of  some  little  benefit  to  the  College  and  to  future 
generations,  and  that  they  may  furnish  an  interesting  com- 
parison with  our  views  on  these  same  questions,  in  years  to 
come. 

The  advice  to  Freshmen,  given  in  answer  to  the  first  of  these 
questions,  is  interesting  and  decidedly  varied,  and  ranges  from 
suggestions  as  to  the  proper  hour  at  which  the  Freshman  should 
rise,  and  the  precise  courses  and  activities  he  should  avoid, 
to  many  philosophical  dissertations  upon  the  curriculum  and 
the  social  system.  The  dominating  note  of  this  mass  of  advice, 
however,  is  this :  for  the  Freshman  not  to  lose  sight  of  his 
studies  as  the  most  important  thing  in  college,  and  having  once 
obtained  a  good  foundation  in  these,  to  concentrate  his  ener- 
gies on  one  or  two  extra-curriculum  activities.  Two  answers 
which  voice  this  sentiment  are:  "Don't  get  so  much  interested 
in  extra-curriculum  activities  as  to  forget  the  real  object  of 
your  coming  to  Yale,"  and  "Cultivate  a  habit  of  study  and  a 
desire  for  high  scholarship."  As  to  advice  concerning  the  activ- 
ities outside  of  the  curriculum,  thirty-one  men  urge  a  Fresh- 
man to  select  carefully  one  activity,  and  work  at  that  with  all 
his  might.  Four  men  suggest  heeling  the  News;  five  say  to  go 
out  for  that  which  will  be  worth  most  to  him,  and  five  more, 
what  he  is  best  fitted  for.  Ten  men  simply  advise  the  Fresh- 

[462] 


OPINIONS  ON  VARIOUS  COLLEGE  TOPICS 

man  to  "work,"  and  twelve  more  resort  to  the  rather  inelegant, 
though  forceful  expression,  "Keep  your  mouth  shut."  Thir- 
teen of  us  think  the  attribute  most  to  be  desired  in  a  Freshman 
is  that  he  follow  the  advice  given  this  year  at  the  Freshman 
Reception,  by  President  Hadley,  as  summed  up  in  the  words, 
"Be  yourself,"  while  somewhat  related  to  this  is  the  Socratic 
commandment,  "Know  thyself,"  given  by  several.  Among  the 
things  that  the  Freshman  is  urged  not  to  do,  are :  Not  to  worry 
about  the  Fraternities,  not  to  conform  to  the  Yale  type,  not 
to  overestimate  the  importance  of  success  in  athletics,  not 
to  stand  in  awe  of  upper-classmen,  not  to  cut  classes,  espe- 
cially while  in  New  Haven,  nor  to  form  opinions  of  Yale  or  of 
one's  classmates  too  hastily. 

The  answers  to  the  second  of  these  questions,  "What  is  the 
most  valuable  thing  you  have  obtained  from  your  College 
career?"  indicate  beyond  a  doubt,  that,  in  the  minds  of  most  of 
us,  our  friendships  have  been  the  chief  assets  of  our  College 
course.  Over  one  hundred  men  speak  of  friendship  in  this  con- 
nection, while  the  next  most  valuable  asset,  "general  broaden- 
ing," is  subscribed  to  by  fifty-six.  It  is  interesting  to  note  that 
answers  in  regard  to  education  are  decidedly  in  the  minority, — 
only  ten  men  in  all,  considering  the  many  benefits  from  the  cur- 
riculum, in  this  light,  as  of  prime  importance.  Contact  and 
association  with  men,  broader  sympathy  and  wider  experience, 
self-reliance  and  self-control,  humility  and  independence,  ability 
to  think  clearly  and  to  concentrate,  appreciation  of  literature 
and  art,  and  "Inspiration  which  comes  from  working  with  a 
great  body  of  men,"  are  the  main  points  mentioned  in  this 
regard,  as  the  most  valuable  things  of  our  College  career. 

Of  equal  interest  to  the  foregoing  set  of  answers  are  those 
in  reply  to  the  next  question  on  the  statistical  blanks,  "What 
do  you  regret  most  in  your  College  career?"  As  has  been  done 
many  times  before,  always,  perhaps,  to  the  satisfaction  of 
certain  members  of  the  Faculty,  the  Senior  Class  has  voted  this 
year  that  its  neglect  of  the  curriculum  is  its  greatest  regret. 
Seventy-nine  men  agree  that  they  have  wasted  their  oppor- 

[463] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

tunities  for  study,  twenty-five  of  them  attributing  this  to  a 
tardy  realization  of  the  true  value  of  a  college  career.  Nine- 
teen say  that  they  have  wasted  their  time  by  choosing  the 
easiest  courses,  while  fourteen  regret  that  they  did  not  make  a 
more  serious  attempt  for  Phi  Beta  Kappa.  The  question  of 
the  extra-curriculum  is  again  in  prominence.  Thirty-one  men 
think  that  they  should  have  taken  a  greater  part  in  these 
activities,  thirteen  limiting  themselves  to  the  regret  that  they 
did  not  go  out  for  athletics,  and  five  that  they  did  not  heel  for 
the  Neves,  while  nine  are  sorry  that  they  did  not  concentrate 
on  at  least  one  field  of  endeavor.  The  question  of  Yale's 
athletic  reverses  is  an  entirely  new  phase,  and  one  of  con- 
siderable importance,  as  shown  by  the  fact  that  nineteen  men 
consider  this  the  greatest  regret  in  their  College  career.  Other 
answers  to  this  question  are,  "Failure  to  cultivate  a  larger 
acquaintance,"  "Waste  of  time  due  to  following  course  of  least 
resistance,"  and  "Inability  to  attend  full  four-year  course." 

Perhaps  the  most  valuable  question  of  all  on  the  statistical 
blanks,  however,  is  this,  "What,  in  your  estimation,  is  Yale's 
greatest  need?"  From  the  many  answers  to  this  question,  it 
would  seem  that  a  new  and  vital  need  has  arisen  in  the  eyes 
of  many  of  us,  that  of  a  major  sport  championship,  which 
received  fifty-four  votes.  The  need  of  a  greater  number  of 
professors  with  sufficient  personality  to  inspire  a  greater 
interest  in  the  curriculum  is  also  felt  to  be  of  importance,  as 
is  likewise  a  larger  endowment  and  more  money  given  without 
restriction.  Other  needs  which  seem  to  have  become  a  neces- 
sity to  Yale  are:  the  domination  of  the  individual  over  what 
is  commonly  known  as  the  Yale  type;  a  building  on  the  prin- 
ciple of  the  Harvard  Union  for  the  development  of  co-ordi- 
nation in  the  College;  more  confidence  in  the  established  order; 
and  a  new  social  system  which  will  do  away  with  the  prc-smt 
so-called  unnatural  restraint. 

As  a  solution  of  the  question,  "How  can  a  deeper  interest  in 
scholarship  be  cultivated?"  sixty-one  men  offer  the  simple 
remedy  of  exempting  high  stand  men  from  all  r\  a  mi  nation*;. 

[464] 


OPINIONS  ON  VARIOUS  COLLEGE  TOPICS 

Other  means  based  on  the  recognition  of  a  high  stand  are,  "the 
laying  of  greater  emphasis  on  scholarship  as  a  requirement  for 
eligibility  to  fraternities  and  societies,"  voted  by  thirteen;  and 
"the  division  of  classes  graded  according  to  the  ability  of  the 
students  in  their  respective  courses,"  which  was  the  answer 
given  by  ten  men.  Another  group  of  replies  deal  with  the 
faculty  and  courses.  Twenty-nine  believe  that  a  greater 
interest  can  best  be  cultivated  by  the  acquisition  of  more  pro- 
fessors of  practical  intelligence  to  develop  "individual  thought 
in  addition  to  book  learning,"  while  nine  believe  that  it  can 
best  be  brought  about  by  the  inauguration  of  more  outside 
reading  and  individual  work.  Fifteen  answer  that  more  oppor- 
tunities for  a  personal  relationship  between  students  and 
faculty  both  in  and  out  of  class  should  be  offered ;  and  nine 
suggest  that  the  classes  be  smaller,  thus  allowing  more  individ- 
ual attention.  The  question  of  extra-curriculum  activities  is 
likewise  in  evidence;  for  ten  believe  that  the  only  way  to 
increase  the  interest  in  the  curriculum  is  to  decrease  the  impor- 
tance of  extra-curriculum  accomplishments,  especially  ath- 
letic. Twenty-seven  men,  however,  believe  that  there  is  no  need 
of  a  further  stimulus,  while  six  say  that  it  is  impossible  to 
stimulate  interest  in  scholarship  artificially. 

The  answers  of  the  class  to  the  question,  "Why  did  you 
choose  Yale  in  preference  to  other  colleges?"  are  on  the  whole 
most  gratifying;  for  although  a  third  of  the  class  attributes 
its  choice  to  Yale  relatives  and  a  Yale  environment,  the  remain- 
ing two-thirds,  with  but  two  exceptions,  praise  the  College, 
its  graduates  and  its  spirit,  from  many  different  angles. 
Fifty-seven  men  attribute  their  choice  to  their  admiration  for 
Yale  men,  while  nine  more  assign  it  to  the  prestige  and  influ- 
ence of  Yale  graduates  in  every  city  of  the  country.  Thirty- 
six  attribute  their  choice  of  Yale  solely  to  its  indomitable 
spirit,  thirty-five  to  its  democracy,  the  true  essential  for  schol- 
arship and  general  broadening  of  character,  and  two  to  the 
ideals  for  which  Yale  stands ;  while  four  say  that  the  reason 
for  their  choice  was  the  fact  that  Yale  ideals  and  manner  of 

[465] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

living  are  particularly  applicable  to  later  life.  Of  the  reasons 
given  for  the  choice  of  Yale  which  pertain  strictly  to  its  cur- 
riculum and  its  faculty,  the  most  prominent  is  the  efficiency  of 
the  Academic  Department,  voted  by  eight  men.  Five  answered 
that  it  was  Yale  scholarship,  while  two  said  that  it  was  the 
Music  School  and  one  that  it  was  the  Art  School  that  brought 
them  to  Yale. 

The  last  question  on  the  statistical  blanks  was,  "If  you  were 
given  the  power,  how  would  you  readjust  the  College  social 
system,  first  as  to  fraternities,  and  secondly  as  to  societies?" 
Not  as  many  answers  to  this  question  as  to  the  majority  of 
the  others  have  been  recorded,  but  those  that  have  been  set 
down  contain  many  interesting  suggestions  and  constructive 
opinions  on  this  topic.  First  as  to  the  Junior  fraternities, — 
sixty-one  men  voted  to  leave  them  precisely  as  they  are,  while 
nine  would  abolish  them  altogether.  Fifty-one  advise  doing 
away  with  all  secrecy  in  connection  with  these  fraternities,  for- 
ty-nine recommending  that  they  be  made  open  houses.  Forty- 
three  men  suggest  that  the  number  of  fraternities  be  increased 
and  the  membership  of  each  decreased,  while,  on  the  other 
hand,  but  four  believe  that  the  number  of  fraternities  should 
be  decreased  and  the  membership  of  each  increased.  Other 
recommendations  are  that  inter-fraternity  debates  and  athletic 
contests  be  instituted,  that  the  Yale  fraternities  sever  their 
connection  with  outside  fraternities,  and  that  all  elections  be 
given  during  Sophomore  year.  As  to  the  Senior  societies, — 
seventy-two  men  would  leave  them  as  they  are,  believing  them 
to  be  one  of  the  greatest  influences  for  good  in  the  University ; 
while  twenty-one  would  abolish  the  whole  system,  thinking  that 
the  Senior  societies  generate  a  false  atmosphere  and  an  un- 
necessary constraint.  Of  those  that  advocate  changes,  the 
majority  are  in  favor  of  a  decrease  of  secrecy  and  mysticism. 
Twenty-six  men  would  abolish  only  the  extreme  secrecy,  while 
eleven  would  do  away  with  all  secrecy  whatsoever,  transform- 
ing the  societies  into  honorary  clubs.

GENERAL  VOTES 

Answers  to  questions  on  the  statistical  blanks,  containing 
preferences  of  the  Class  on  miscellaneous  College  topics,  not 
mentioned  in  the  foregoing  paragraphs,  are  given  here. 

Preferences  as  regards  the  respective  value  of  a  Phi  Beta 
Kappa  Key,  a  News  charm,  a  Lit.  Triangle,  and  the  Univer- 
sity "Y,"- — the  recognized  criteria  of  success  in  the  curriculum 
and  more  important  extra-curriculum  pursuits,  are  as  follows : 
First  votes— Phi  Beta  Kappa,  183;  "Y,"  105;  News,  17;  Lit., 
15.  Second  votes— "Y,"  145;  Phi  Beta  Kappa,  89;  News, 
35 ;  Lit.,  30. 

Two  hundred  and  twenty  men  voted  in  favor  of  daily  chapel, 
while  eighty  voted  against  it.  One  hundred  and  fifty-seven, 
however,  are  opposed  to  Sunday  chapel;  one  hundred  and 
forty-eight  being  in  its  favor. 

In  reply  to  the  question,  "Would  you  favor  a  course  in 
current  events?"  two  hundred  and  forty-seven  men  replied  in 
the  affirmative,  and  sixty-four  in  the  negative.  A  few  of  the 
answers,  both  for  and  against  such  a  course  are  as  follows : 
"A  course  in  current  events  would  enable  one  to  recognize 
reliable  information."  "It  would  be  a  time-saver."  "A  valu- 
able way  of  showing  significance  of  modern  events  in  the  light 
of  the  past."  "It  would  start  a  habit  of  keeping  in  touch  with 
current  events."  "Men  should  learn  to  read  the  papers,  which 
are  sufficient."  "Other  courses  are  needed  first." 

In  reply  to  the  question,  "Should  high  stand  men  be  exempt 
from  examinations,  and,  if  so,  how  high  a  stand  would  you 
advocate  for  exemption?"  a  majority  of  men,  two  hundred 
and  twenty-five,  voted  in  favor  of  granting  this  immunity, 
while  one  hundred  and  seven  opposed  it.  The  highest  mark 
set  for  exemption  was  3.60,  and  the  lowest,  2.25.  The  average 
mark  given  was  3.19. 

Replies  to  the  question,  "Do  you  believe  in  restricting  the 
activities  of  the  undergraduate,  whether  athletic  or  other- 
wise, to  two  or  any  number  of  spheres?"  show  that  the  Class 

[467] 


HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  NINETEEN  FOURTEEN 

is  overwhelmingly  opposed  to  any  such  restriction.  There 
are  three  main  reasons  given  by  the  two  hundred  and  twenty- 
one  men  who  voted  against  restricting  the  undergraduate. 
Twenty-two  uphold  the  opinion  that  such  affairs  should  be  left 
to  the  discretion  of  the  individual.  Eighteen  say  that  it  would 
be  an  unfair  restriction  on  a  man  of  versatile  ability;  while 
thirteen  believe  that  public  sentiment,  not  legislation,  should 
discourage  excesses  in  this  line. 

One  hundred  and  ninety-five  men  advise  a  man's  working  his 
way  through  College,  if  he  has  no  other  resources,  while  thirty- 
six  advise  him  not  to  do  so.  As  to  the  most  desirable  form  of 
work  in  such  a  case, — of  those  members  of  the  Class  who  have 
themselves  worked  their  way,  in  whole  or  in  part,  sixty-seven 
recommend  tutoring,  thirteen,  teaching  (the  two  evidently  do 
not  appear  to  be  synonymous),  and  eleven  consider  managing 
an  eating  house  the  most  desirable  form  of  work.
